Talk about a Merry Christmas! The Jonesboro-Hodge High School Band received a tremendous Christmas gift this week through a donation made by Project Sacrificial Love, comprised of various donors in Jackson Parish.

On Friday, Mrs. Aleane B. Hayes, a retired English teacher and former Jackson Parish School Board member, along with Mrs. Alice Davis (retired JPSB music teacher), and Mr. Gerry Mims (current JPSB member) presented a check in the amount of $2,650 to Mr. Trey Porchay, Band Director and the band students.
