🌱 HERE WE GROW! 🦁

The school is ready, our staff is ready, and even Copper is ready! 🐾💚 Now we just need our Lions!

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back tomorrow and officially kick off the 2026–2027 school year at Sun Valley!

There’s nothing quite like the excitement of a brand new school year. 💚 We’re ready for a year of learning, growing, and making some great memories together.

Get some rest tonight, Lions…we’ll see you in the morning! 🦁🌱
