This will be a long post, but it is a heartfelt, grateful post. Words can not express how wonderful our partners are and how they show up for us. Huge shout out to Lincoln Alumni, WWL, Ge**er, Antioch, Delta Sigma Theta, Knights of Round Table, Flemming Construction, CBNorth, our PTA and so many others who give their time, financially and effortlessly to our school.

We have had an amazing start with our Staff at our district "Launch for Learning", as well as our Professional Development time filled with great BREAKFAST, LUNCH, SNACKS and a CANDY BAR all provided by Partners. We had over 400+ hot dogs grilled for our families last night and our sweet Partners served every child and family. These few pictures don't do it justice, but they are truly amazing and it has been a great start. We are so excited to Welcome our Howard Tigers❤️

School is still over a month away, but now is the perfect time to get a head start on school supply shopping!

Our school supply lists for the upcoming school year are now available, along with other helpful back-to-school resources to make getting ready a little easier.
