One of my favorite parts of being on the school board is school visits, where I get to see the amazing student artwork. I’m so glad we celebrate artists across the grades every year!

One of the coolest things I've gotten to do as a School Director is get a CTC tour from Dr. Ben Mordan, Director of SCASD-CTC. State High was 15 programs and serves over 2,000 students!!!

SCASD proves over and over again that schools are the cornerstone of the community.

At the ELD potluck last night, I had the privilege of spending time with Cindy Sergeon and Lexie Wise, learning about all the ways the SCASD Family & Community Engagement Program cares for local families. A link to details about the SCASD Helping Hands Pantry is in the comments. The pantry can be used by any student, family, or staff member in SCASD — and your donation would make a critical difference.

Please follow the SCASD Family & Community Engagement Program and share their page:

Thanks to all the SCASD folks who attended — we are so grateful for all you do to care for our community.

I got to help give out vegetables on Wednesday and was awed by the team led by Megan Schaper, SCASD director of food services. 900 children were signed up. As we hit 12:00, there was food to feed the last folks to arrive but very few items over once we started to shut down at 12:30. Miraculous planning and so much joy.

We LOVE that we can support the District's families with the Summer Food Service Program!
