Here’s to 10 Years of Club Wildcat! 🐾🖤💛
As we begin the 2026–27 school year, we proudly celebrate a very special milestone—the 10th Anniversary of Club Wildcat.
As I welcome our Club Wildcat team for another year, I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to the families, parents, students, staff members, and community supporters who have been part of this journey over the past decade.
Ten years ago, Club Wildcat was built on a simple goal: to provide a service for working families that exceeded expectations—a place where children felt safe, valued, and excited to be each day, and where parents could have peace of mind knowing their children were being cared for by people who genuinely loved them.
What began as an after-school program has grown into something much greater. Club Wildcat has become a place where students are encouraged, nurtured, challenged, and inspired. It is a place where friendships are formed, confidence is built, memories are made, and young people discover their potential.
The success of Club Wildcat has never been about one person. It has been made possible by the dedication of extraordinary staff members who have poured their hearts into this program over the years. I have been incredibly blessed to work alongside so many phenomenal individuals whose commitment and compassion have shaped the lives of countless students. Their impact reaches far beyond the hours spent after school.
I am equally grateful for the trust our parents have placed in us and for the unwavering support of our community. Together, we have created a safe, engaging, and enriching environment where students can learn, grow, and thrive beyond the school day. Every year we are constantly innovating new ideas, opportunities and resources.
One of the greatest joys of this journey has been watching former Club Wildcat students return years later to serve as staff members. Seeing those young people come full circle is a powerful reminder that the relationships built here matter and that the seeds planted years ago continue to grow. Club Wildcat has provided opportunities for so many rising stars within our community, and I am incredibly proud of the role this program has played in their stories.
As we welcome both familiar and new faces to our team for the 2026–27 school year, I am filled with excitement and gratitude for what lies ahead. While we celebrate the accomplishments of the past ten years, our greatest work is still in front of us.
Thank you for believing in the mission of Club Wildcat. Thank you for trusting us with your children. Thank you for helping us create a program that has touched so many lives.
Together, we are building a stronger future for our students, our families, and our community.
Here’s to 10 years of memories, relationships, growth, and impact—and to many more years of making a difference, one child at a time.
Thank you for supporting my vision. I’ve been serving families for 15 years and I hope this program has been a blessing to your family.
♥️
