On February 27, the American Red Cross will come into the school and take blood from students and staff. The event will take place in the gym foyer. The blood goes to patients in need of a transfusion and other medical problems. To sign up, you have to be at least 16 years old and meet certain weight and height requirements. If you’re 16, you need to get parental permission. If you’re 17 or older you can sign up yourself during the first and third blocks. Signups are during all lunches, ending on Wednesday, February 26. The blood drive is sponsored by Health Occupational Students of America (HOSA), which is a student run club.
