Additionally, members of the Peer Leadership program attended a S.A.V.E. leadership conference in Harrisburg last week to learn more about preventing social isolation and bullying here at Southern.

FBLA members Gracie Keller, Anesa Brown, and Elizabeth Hodder led a donation drive for the Bloomsburg Women's Center. The partnership was generated by Amanda Strocko, FBLA president. Students throughout the high school donated cleaning and hygiene items. Over 100 donations will be provided to the Center.
