What a beautiful way to close out an incredible founding year at Friendly Academy ๐โจ
We had the honor of surprising our Founder, Dr. Tesha Robinson, with gifts that represented love, legacy, and the impact of her vision.
To commemorate a successful founding year, we presented her with a custom Friendly Academy Letterman Jacket and the surprise became even more special because every staff member, along with her husband and daughter, also received one. A symbol of unity. A symbol of family. A symbol that we are all part of something bigger than ourselves. ๐
We also had the privilege of presenting Dr. Robinson with a special recognition from the Missouri House of Representatives presented by State Representative Kimberly-Ann Collins in honor of her leadership, dedication, and commitment to changing lives through education and love.
This founding year has been filled with growth, vision, sacrifice, intentionality, and purpose. This was our opportunity to pour back into the woman who pours so much into all of us.
Dr. Robinson, thank you for seeing not only our abilities, but the people behind them. Thank you for creating a culture rooted in love, excellence, and belonging. And thank you for daring to build something transformational for our students, families, and community.
Year One is completeโฆ and this is only the beginning. ๐ซ
