Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week is still going strong! 💥😋

Yesterday’s lunch was a total hit—catered by Old Southern BBQ Smokehouse, and it was SO good!

To our incredible teachers and staff: thank you for the energy, patience, and heart you pour into our kids every single day. You make a difference in ways that go far beyond the classroom, and we are so grateful for you.

A huge thank you to our amazing families for your generous donations that made today possible—we truly couldn’t do this without you.

And shoutout to our PTO for organizing such a thoughtful and fun week to celebrate our staff!

We are so lucky to be part of such a supportive, generous community. ❤️

(And seriously—if you haven’t tried Old Southern BBQ in Excelsior yet, this is your sign. Go!!)
