So awesome go

It was an absolute pleasure to have these lead the pledge of allegiance at the April 24, 2023 board meeting. These stellar students also showed everyone the Summerwind Pledge, and they did SO well!

Thank you to the students, their families, and the fantastic Mrs. McNamara and Mrs. Stewart for attending! ✨🌌
