Classroom Highlights ✨
What a great night for our K–6 kids! 🏀
Some of our elementary students took part in basketball skills mini-sessions led by some amazing parent volunteers, then had the chance to play during halftime of the varsity games. So much fun, confidence, and excitement all around!
Thank you to the parents who helped make this such a special experience for our kids. 🖤🤍
