Once in the meeting, members can choose which breakout room activity they are most interested in doing. In order to choose your breakout room, Zoom must be updated to the latest feature, so make sure you have the most updated version downloaded!

We strongly encourage everyone to attend the beginning of the meeting as we will be announcing our next fundraiser and e-board applications for the 2021-2022 school year.
