Also a shoutout to Ari Davis for coming in and being our Alumni speaker for the 25-26 school year! 💙💙

Our 7th and 8th graders had an amazing field trip to Chicago, where they learned about the rich heritage and history of Puerto Rico. Students explored Puerto Rican culture, traditions, and contributions while also enjoying the opportunity to try authentic Puerto Rican food. It was a meaningful and memorable experience that brought learning to life and helped students connect with a vibrant culture in a fun and engaging way. 🇵🇷✨

Thank you so much for having us there! ✨❤️
