☕ Coffee tastes better with community!

Our Parent Breakfast brought together wonderful conversations, shared stories, new introductions, and plenty of smiles. It was especially meaningful to learn more about our families—their journeys, experiences, and the many different paths that brought them to Young Scholars.

These pictures capture what makes our school special: people taking the time to connect, listen, laugh, and strengthen the relationships that surround our students every day.

Thank you to our parents for spending part of your morning with us. We loved having you at the table! 💙💛

Today marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001.

Our school community pauses to remember and honor the 2,977 lives lost in New York City, Shanksville, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon. We hold in our hearts the families whose lives were changed forever, and we give thanks to the first responders and everyday heroes who showed extraordinary courage in the face of tragedy.

While our students today learn about 9/11 through history books rather than memory, the lessons of that day remain foundational: compassion, unity, resilience, and service to one another.

Today, in observance of Patriot Day and National Day of Service and Remembrance, let us honor their memory through acts of kindness and support across our community.
