Best. First. Week. Of. Summer. 💙
We loved welcoming so many new faces this week and kicking off summer with lots of smiles, laughter, and fun! From an amazing magician to flower arrangements and everything in between, it was a week full of memories, friendships, and excitement.

Last semester, our students partnered up for a special project that combined fine motor skills with meaningful conversations about feelings and emotions. Together, they traced each other's body outlines and explored what makes each of us unique—both on the outside and the inside.

As they decorated their creations, students talked about emotions like happiness, sadness, excitement, and frustration, sharing what makes them feel each one. It was a wonderful opportunity to build self-awareness, practice communication, and celebrate the things that make us who we are. 💙

It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of one of our sweet Unless U students, Leslie Putman. Leslie has gone to be with Jesus.

Leslie brought so much joy to our community. She had the most beautiful smile, loved to dance, and her sass and personality kept us giggling. She was a fierce self-advocate who brought her whole self into every room she entered, and she was deeply loved by our students and staff. We are absolutely devastated by this loss.

Her celebration of life will be on May 21st at Lakeside Baptist Church. Visitation will be from 4:00–6:00 PM, with the service beginning at 6:00 PM.
