Martin Luther King Jr.
Day of Service
January 20th
Each year the Jo Kelly staff, students and their families participate in the Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service.
In December 2019 they were asked to focus on collecting toiletries. There was a collection box in the front foyer under The Giving Tree. The items were collected and distributed to the Fort Worth Homeless Community on January 20th 2020.
Goodbye Retirees!
With 140+ years of experience, Jo Kelly wishes our five 2021 retirees a well-deserved, restful and happy retirement!
