πŸŽƒ Hand-picked the very best pumpkins to bring home

Thank you to G & G Farms for such a wonderful experience, and a huge shoutout to our amazing parent chaperones for helping make this day so special!

🚲 Our schools proudly joined thousands of communities nationwide today for Walk, Bike, and Roll to School Day!

It was incredible to see so many families ditching the car line to embrace fresh air, active habits, and morning exercise together. A special shoutout to our youngest learners, who brought unmatched energy (and serious style) on their journey to school this morning.

Events like this help build lifelong healthy habits, teach important pedestrian safety skills, and connect our school community.

We love catching moments like this in our hallways! πŸ“Έ

A staff member pausing for a quick, casual chat with one of our new high school students. He almost towers over the doorframe now, but no matter how tall they grow, our students never outgrow the need for genuine connection, encouragement, and mentorship from the adults who guide them every day. πŸ₯°

Moments like these are what make our school community truly special.
