The Junior class is at it again tonight—painting the town blue and orange! 🎨💙🧡
Such a fun way to get the job done and show off our Trojan pride. We’re almost finished painting P’s for the year… but if you spot them out and about, you might just be able to talk them into adding one more… or maybe not. 😂
thank you to everyone that ordered and to all the parents and juniors that helped make this a success!
School is starting soon!
