school newsletter titled “LJHS Support Staff Scoop – May” features a purple and gray layout with Viking logos at the top. The main section explains that May is a time of growth and encourages students to stay focused, maintain healthy routines, and finish the school year strong. A sidebar lists upcoming events including Law Day, Teacher Appreciation Week, Memorial Day (no school), and completing a Second Step unit. Below, three columns share staff tips from counselors, a social worker, and a school nurse about staying organized, managing busy schedules, and staying hydrated as the weather warms. At the bottom, a “Vikings Spotlight” highlights Future City students placing third at the NC State Wearable Device Challenge, alongside a small photo of students presenting a project. A staff contacts section lists email addresses for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade support staff and the school social worker.
