🦅 What an incredible turnout for our very first Eagles Playground Playdate! Thank you to everyone who came out and made it such a fun morning!

It was wonderful to see so many students, families, and staff enjoying time together before the school year begins. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect, the popsicles were a hit, and it was so much fun watching everyone connect, play, and make new memories.

Thank you for helping us kick off this new tradition—we can’t wait to do it again. Go Eagles! 💙💛
