⚡ Charge Into Fire Safety! ⚡
It’s Fire Prevention Week, and this year’s theme is all about safe charging! As technology plays a big role in our everyday lives, we are reminding our OneClay community that safe charging is a superpower.
🔌 Plug in. Power up. Stay safe.
To keep our homes and schools safe, make sure you are using your 6 Charging Superpowers:
• Cheap charger? Don't chance it. Use the cord and charger that came with your device or one approved by the manufacturer.
• Soft surface? Hard pass. Charge on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk, or bare floor.
• Fully charged? Time to unplug. Unplug your device when it is fully charged.
• For tools and rides, charge outside. Charge large items like e-bikes, scooters, and power tools outside when possible, and never block exits when charging.
• Feels hot? Stop using it. Stop using your device if it feels very hot, starts to swell, smells strange, leaks, smokes, or makes popping or hissing sounds.
• On a flight? Keep it in sight. Keep devices where you can see them while charging on an airplane, and tell a flight attendant if you notice a problem.

It was a great night at LAJ! Before kickoff, the team was proud to present a $1,500 donation to the American Cancer Society in support of cancer research and the fight for a cure.
Then our Tigers took the field and earned a great win over the Wilkinson Eagles! We had an incredible crowd cheering on both teams and making Pink Out a special night.
Thank you to our coaches, families, players, cheerleaders, pep band, and students for showing up and supporting our Tigers!
The Lake Asbury FBLA hosted a Special FBLA Interest meeting with our Florida FBLA State Reporter, Shawn Saint Vilus, this past week! He came and spoke to members, parents, and potential members, sharing about the impact FBLA has had on his life as an Alumnus of Lake Asbury Junior. He shared how his experience started as a 7th grader and has grown through challenges, successes, friendships, and national recognition. The next Lake Asbury FBLA chapter meeting is Thursday, October 1st at 8:30 a.m. in Room 611, and you are invited. We hope to see you there!
A GREAT NIGHT TO BE A TIGER!
What a night for Lake Asbury Athletics! Both our Flag Football and Volleyball teams picked up wins tonight!
But the night was about more than what happened on the scoreboard.
Our volleyball team held its Breast Cancer Awareness Game, with our players proudly wearing pink and coming together for an incredible cause. Thanks to the support of our players, families, coaches, and Tiger community, LAJH Volleyball was proud to donate $500 to the American Cancer Society.
Winning games is always fun, but seeing our Tigers represent their school while supporting something bigger than themselves makes us even more proud.
Great job, Tigers!

The Fishing Club is back at LAJ! Thanks to Mr. Murray for bringing this club back to campus! Friday’s first outing had a great turnout, fish were caught, and fun was had. It was great to see our Tigers outside enjoying the fresh air and time together.
We’re especially grateful to the teachers and staff who voluntarily give their time to sponsor clubs and create these opportunities for our students. 🎣
🏈 Our Tigers came away with a big win over Oakleaf Junior on Saturday! We are proud of our players, not only for how they competed, but for the composure, discipline, and sportsmanship they demonstrate each week.
