We recently welcomed community members, partners, and supporters to PUENTE for an evening of connection and celebration during Hispanic Heritage Month. 🪅🎉

From hearing directly from PUENTE families to enjoying lotería and a vibrant folklórico performance, the evening was a meaningful reflection of the culture and community at the heart of our work. 💙

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening special. We look forward to welcoming more of our community to a future PUENTE event.

We’re grateful to see our community come together to support our PUENTE Charter students! 👓

Thank you to Vision To Learn for supporting our students learning by providing free vision screenings and free glasses. For many, this was their first pair of glasses, while others received replacements.

As a proud community school, we’re grateful to Vision To Learn and all the partners who help make opportunities like this possible for our students and families. Thank you for helping our students see a brighter future!
