Hey Holiday Jellies! I’m so excited to be here working on the 3rd anniversary edition of The Jam! As you may know I’m the original creator and editor of The Jam and it’s so amazing to see how far it’s gone thanks to Mya, Alyla, Irma, and of course all of you reading! As it’s getting colder be sure to stay safe + warm so you can spend the holidays with ease. We’re nearing the end of this term as we ring the new year in next month. Let’s cherish the rest of 2020 and be thankful for all the lessons learned and good times we’ve had in the midst of madness. With Love Always<3
Happy Holidays !!
letter from the
HAPPY HOLIDAYS JELLIES! We are now in December! As the weather gets colder please continue to stay warm, stay indoors, and Stay safe! I hope you have fun celebrating any holidays you and your family celebrate during the month of December! Time really flew by fast, that in just a blink of an eye we are approaching the end of the year as well as the end of our term :’) Together we have accomplished so much & I simply can’t put into words of how proud I am of each one of you. From the very beginning to now, you guys have shown how committed and dedicated you are to serving our home, school, and community. With the very few months (4) that we have left together, let's work harder and strive for more. We are a few hours away from our service hour goal 1,660/1,800! WAIT, did I mention that if we reach our goal, we will break & set a new record in DLA Key club?!?! I really hope we can serve 2,000 hours this term as a whole, but that would be an understatement because I know we can! Let’s go above & beyond our set goals. If anyone can help us, it's definitely you. With that being said, I would like to thank you for reading my message and this month’s edition of THE JAM. In which our publicity committee(especially Bri) worked really hard to make. Please know that I notice all the efforts you put into this club, your service never goes unnoticed. This is all I have this month, I miss you all & please enjoy this month’s edition <3

NORTHERN LIGHTS EXHIBITION MICHELLE CORTEZ DLA Freshman The northern lights exhibition was my first dla key club service I attended and it was an amazing experience to go to. I was able to help out by putting together various decorations, setting them up and also have fun talking to people. I really liked the fact that there were also many more people from other schools who helped us set up. I also liked that we all worked together which ended up letting us finish a little faster than we had intended. Overall it was a really great and fun experience to get to help out the center for the arts with the northern lights exhibition.

Hey Jellies what is your favo TRAN PHAM DLA Freshman The month of December is one of the most special months to me because it's the month of Christmas, winter, New Year's Eve, and it's another month to make new memories. I find December so special because it’s all about celebrating Christmas and New Year’s Eve with your loved ones and spreading happiness in the world. This is just such a beautiful time to spend extra time with your loved ones. In December, it helps me realize how lucky I am to have so many nice, helpful people, that means the world to me, and is always there for me. I think every day is a new day to accomplish things and do the things you love. However, the ending of the year always reminds me of letting go of all the bad things that happened this year and think of all the things I have learned.
AMY BOLANOS DLA Junior December is actually one of my favorite months :). My favorite things about the month would be the holiday spirit and watching Christmas movies, decorating, gift giving and listening to Christmas music. My family has a tradition of opening presents around the tree on Christmas eve and i love seeing how they react to their gifts although i’d be lying if i didn’t say receiving presents is one of my favorite parts.
orite thing about December? MICHELLE LUNA DLA Sophomore Hi there, my name's Michelle Luna and I am a 10th grader here at DLA. One of my favorite things from the month of December was being able to plan the Cold Hands, Warm Heart book drive for Girl Up Del Lago. Over the last couple Weeks, it has been absolutely incredible being able to collect over 70 female based books from different donors. These books are going to be wrapped and gifted to young girls which makes me so happy knowing they'll make a difference this holiday season. P.S. I also love that I'm able to listen to Christmas music all day :')
JACOB PARKER DLA Junior December is my favorite time of the year. The cold weather and rainy season makes it nice to cuddle up next to the fireplace and watch movies. I also eat really well in December. My mom bakes cookies, winter soups and an occasional loaf of fresh bread. My family takes a casual approach to the holidays. We spend Christmas in our pajamas playing games, and hanging out. Sometimes we travel to Oregon and Washington to visit family. Of course I enjoy the break from school. It gives me time to play games with friends and sleep in. December is my favorite because it feels like the longest weekend in the year.
