Still smiling from Friday’s FUN RUN! 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽🥁🎈

Thanks to the incredible support of our community, we surpassed our fundraising goal and raised over $50K for our school! 🎉

We also celebrated with the ribbon cutting for our brand new turf field! Thank you to the elected officials, staff, teachers, and community members who worked so hard over the years to make this vision a reality. ❤️

Thank you to our amazing sponsors,
especially and the Law Office of Julie O. Herrera. We are so thankful for your support.

And finally, thank you to everyone who donated, cheered, and volunteered to make the Fun Run so special.

What an unforgettable day of school spirit, community, and celebration! ✨
