Happy last day of school! Here's a few photos from last Friday's Signing Day, a wonderful event that sends off our graduates in style. Congratulations to all who are moving on and see you soon to those of you returning to us. ESY starts on Wednesday, July 1st!

Congratulations to Myles, Malik, Maaz, and Rahim - our June Students of the Month. Looking forward to sharing munchkins with you at Principals' Breakfast tomorrow morning!

This week's 💛Golden Hearts💛 are three amazing caregivers who each make a difference in the lives of the children and young adults they work with. Congrats to Jackie, Carrie, and Marissa!

Saying that today was 'eventful' would be an understatement! We began the day with a visit from Governor Ned Lamont, who met with paraprofessional staff, led by Stacye Booker, to learn about opportunities and challenges of the role.

Next we celebrated our inaugural "Signing Day" where representatives from adult agencies welcomed our graduates into their programs (more photos coming soon).

We ended the day with a Pep Rally honoring our Students and Workers of the Month for April, May, and June. And of course, capped it all off with a well-deserved Dance Party.

Have a great long weekend everyone and we'll see you on Monday! 🦅💙

Graduation 2026 is in the books - what a wonderful day. Congrats to all the graduates and a huge thank you to the ceremony planners, Kelly Yates and Nicole Flaherty.

In loving memory of Hunter. 🕯️
