On August 5th, HJH faculty and staff were treated to the annual staff luncheon provided by MOSAIC and the Hardee County Education Foundation. MOSAIC also provides funding for the school's annual staff t-shirts. This year all staff received a navy blue polo with an orange Wildcat paw. The ongoing support provided to HJH from local community partners is a great way to show teachers support during the busiest time of the school year. During the luncheon, teachers were able to slow down and enjoy a delicious pulled pork meal grilled by Mark Stevenson, the 7th-8th grade Ag teacher. Baked beans and macaroni and cheese were provided from Smokin' Joe's BBQ and Diner in Bowling Green. Joining school staff for the luncheon were Shauntee Hines, Cepeda Fulse, and Reid Benton from MOSAIC.
Additional community partners made a monetary donation to the school. Mr. Jeff Cornelius of Peace River Electric Corporation presented a $1,000 check to Hardee Junior High School Principal, Dr. Sheryl L. Mosley on August 6th. The HJH faculty and staff would like to express their gratitude for all of the community support that has helped to kick off the school year on a positive note.
