Our 2020-2021 partnership with THRIVE COLLECTIVE is supported by the PTA. This fall high-schoolers created this beautiful mural on the school building wall along Court Street. Students worked with our art teacher and Thrive artists from concept and design theme to paining and completion. It serves as a lasting declaration of our collective belief in JUSTICE FOR ONE AND ALL!! And...in the spring middle-schoolers will be doing the same so stay tuned for more art to benefit our school community and our neighborhood....

There's ONE DAY left of our fundraiser and we've already raised over $3k!!! THANKS TO ALL WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED SO FAR!! Help us meet our goal of $3500 and make your donation here https://bit.ly/2JlEgPK today!
