This isn’t just a meal, it’s a movement for our Pirate family. Here’s what you need to know:
A big pot of delicious jambalaya cooked fresh by Mr. Dylan Roussel
A Bake Sale filled with homemade love
And of course, some “jammin’” music to bring our community together
💥 NEW: It’s now a class competition! 💥
Let’s see which class can bring in the most sales.
📅 Deadline: All orders are due Thursday, October 24.
This is our BIG push month, don’t wait!
Why it matters:
Every plate sold goes right back into our students and staff. Funds support student incentives like CLEP testing opportunities that open doors for their future, and teacher incentives that remind our staff how much we appreciate them.
Our Pirates give their all every day—this is our chance to give back and show what makes Kaplan High UNSTOPPABLE.
👉 Tickets are available now through KHS students, or the public can order online here:
