A huge thank you to For the Culture Barber Co. for bringing their 2nd Annual Backpack Drive to Vista Charter Academy!

We were proud to host this amazing community event at Vista. For the Culture Barber Co. provided FREE backpacks and school supplies, while barbers gave FREE haircuts to help kids get ready for the new school year!

Thank you to For the Culture Barber Co., their barbers, sponsors, and everyone who helped make this event possible.

Check out some of the highlights from an incredible day of giving back to our community!

And the fun at Vista continues! Our next community event is Joel Tracey’s Character Education Show on September 24 from 6:00–6:45 PM! Joel brings character education to life through comedy, magic, wacky stunts, and storytelling while reinforcing many of the same positive values we teach through Moral Focus at Vista.
