Starting the School Year with a Little Community Love! 💜

We are incredibly grateful to our friends at Collectivo Coffee Ravenswood for sponsoring the coffee that will help kick off the first days of school—K–8 on Monday and PreK on Tuesday!

At Friends of McPherson, we know that a strong school community is built by all of us. Partnerships with local businesses and community organizations make a meaningful difference, helping our students, families, teachers, and staff thrive.

A huge THANK YOU to Collectivo Coffee Ravenswood for helping us start the school year with full cups, big smiles, and even bigger community spirit and our own Community Engagement Service Council (CESC) for planning this event!
