"...when teachers are interested in building a bond with you and actually getting to know you, they can make your life so much easier and better.”
One strong, caring relationship can change a student’s whole school experience. With Ready Readers in our classrooms, kids get simple, joyful read‑aloud time. It helps build confidence, sparks curiosity, and helps children enjoy reading from the very beginning.

“We want them to go into aquatic careers.”
This work goes far beyond teaching students how to swim. It’s about opening doors to futures they may have never imagined.

Water safety saves lives. That’s why our work with the Gateway Region YMCA matters so much for our students. Every summer, too many families face preventable tragedies—and giving kids real swim skills is one way we can change that. By opening their pools to Confluence schools and summer programs, this partnership helps more students learn to be safe, confident, and prepared in the water.
