💪🏿Happy Haitian Flag Day from Empower 🇭🇹

Inscribed on the Haitian Flag is “L’Union Fait La Force”, which translates to “Unity creates Strength”. Despite the fact that it is Haitian Flag Day, today we celebrate all nations who freed themselves from colonial powers -Ms. Louigarde , 5th grade teacher 💙

Kicking off our Teacher Appreciation week at Empower! Thank you teachers for the way you pour into our children. Your hard work does not go unnoticed!

Tomorrow, we wear BLUE 💙
As a PACK community, we show Perseverance by learning and growing, Ambition by striving to be inclusive, Community by supporting one another, and Kindness by celebrating every individual. Let’s show up in blue for Autism Awareness!

5th Grade Families! Check out your invitation to tomorrow’s Welcome Party at 5pm!
Empower Upper Staff for an exciting game night and learn about the transition to middle school.

Empower Charter School is a K-8 school through and though and we can’t wait for you to take this next step with us. RSVP on ParentSquare.

This week is a very special one! We’re celebrating the true engine of our school—our Culture & Operations Team.

The way they hold everything together, often behind the scenes, is what keeps our school running seamlessly day in and day out. From planning joyful experiences, to ensuring every seat is filled, to keeping our data tight and aligned—they are constantly moving things forward with purpose.

This work isn’t easy. It takes intention, consistency, and heart—and they show up with all three, every single day.

Please join me in celebrating Ms. Duran, Ms. Brown, and Ms. Jones. Small team, BIG impact!
