✨💖 There’s no place like HCA! 💚🩷

Our Sunshine Duo went over the rainbow on Thursday as Elphaba and Glinda to deliver special treats to our amazing HCA teachers and staff! 🧙‍♀️✨

From the Wicked-inspired costumes to the smiles they brought along the way, these two reminded us that a little magic and kindness can go a long way! 💚🩷

A very special THANK YOU to our Platinum Sponsors, Edward Jones- Financial Advisor: Heather Wright and Mitch Wright, for sponsoring this month’s Sunshine Cart and helping us spread a little extra magic to our incredible teachers and staff! 🌟 Your generosity makes these special moments possible, and we are so grateful for your support of HCA!

📣 ATTENTION DADS — THIS ONE’S FOR YOU! 💙

HCA’s first official All Pro Dad meeting is THIS FRIDAY, October 9! 🎉

Join us in the HCA Cafeteria at 7:15 AM for a morning designed to help dads and kids connect, have fun, and build stronger relationships. Breakfast will be available starting at 7:00 AM! 🥯☕

👨‍👧‍👦 What is All Pro Dad?
All Pro Dad gives dads the opportunity to spend quality time with their children each month through fun, meaningful, memory-making events.

And just to clarify — All Pro Dad is a separate program from PTO. PTO is simply helping spread the word because we’re excited to see this program come to HCA!

👏 A HUGE thank you to the dads who stepped up to bring this program to our school! They’re also looking for sponsors and community support to help make these breakfasts possible throughout the year.

There are several ways to help:

🥯 Host a breakfast
💙 Donate toward a breakfast
🍽️ Donate supplies like plates, napkins, cups, etc.
🤝 Become a sponsor

Whether you’re a local business, HCA family, or community member, your support can help create these special mornings for our dads and kids.

Dads, RSVP using the QR code on the flyer and come be part of something special! Or click here to register: https://allprodadchapters.com/chapters/16774

Same Team. Brighter Futures. 💙🌪️
