Our School Supply Drive was a HUGE success!
Thank you to everyone who generously donated supplies! Our bins were overflowing—we even needed multiple pickups!
Because of your generosity, local children in need will head back to school with the supplies they need to start the year off right.
Thank you for helping our community’s kids have a great start to the new school year!

In Poetry Club, students learned all about metaphors! 📖 We started by reading a variety of poems that use metaphors, then pulled words from a hat to create some hilarious ones of our own. 🎩✨

To finish, everyone got creative and wrote their very own metaphor! ✏️💭 It was a fun way to explore how poets use words to make us imagine, laugh, and see things in new ways. 💫
