Honoring The Veterans In Our Community
Over the past several weeks, we have been gathering photos of Veteran's close to our hearts to share with our school community . It is a small token of our great appreciation for the sacrifice and commitment our Veterans have made to the service and defense of our freedom. Thank you Veteran's from the bottom our our hearts, we thank you for your service to our country. Below is a link to our Veteran's slide show.

Thanksgiving Food Drive October 20th - November 17th
The Heart of Our Mission At the heart of our Thanksgiving Food Drive mission is to ensure that every family in our community can experience the warmth and joy of a traditional holiday meal. We believe that Thanksgiving is time for gratitude, togetherness, and sharing, and no one should be excluded from this celebration due to hardship. Our mission is to close the gap for families facing food insecurity to create a memorable and happy Thanksgiving.
