As we wrap up another incredible school year, Cedar Ridge Elementary would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to our amazing Kids’ Hope mentors from Columbus Avenue Baptist Church! ❤️📚
Your commitment to improving student reading and investing relationally in each child has made a lasting impact on our Jaguars. The encouragement, time, and care you’ve shared throughout the year have helped our students grow in confidence and love for learning.
During our end-of-year Kids’ Hope reception, mentees showed their appreciation by gifting heartfelt cards to their mentors and sharing special memories from the year. These meaningful moments beautifully reflected the strong relationships and positive impact built through the program. ❤️
Thank you again to Kids’ Hope and our wonderful families for partnering with us to support student success both inside and outside the classroom. ❤️🖤🐾
