Student Life Holmes Junior High“Think Twice Stickers”
“As many of you know, Egan Taiber’s brother Gil died this May when he was in a car accident and not wearing his seatbelt. In honor of Gil, Egan’s family established the Gil Taiber Scholarship Fund to gift a scholarship to a qualified graduating high school senior. They also made car window stickers to bring awareness to vehicle safety and wearing seatbelts. The stickers are $5 per sticker and available in the office, cash or check made payable to the Gil Taiber Scholarship Fund. All the money raised through the sale of the stickers goes to the Gil Taiber Scholarship Fund. If you have any questions talk to Ms. Jensen in the office .
