🎉 WE DID IT, IRON HORSES! 🎉
Huge thanks to all the amazing families who donated to our 'Bowls & Boxes' drive for the Charleston Animal Society!

Look at the incredible mountain of supplies YOU built in just 5 days! 🐾📦

Our House competition brought out the best in everyone:
🔥 1st Place: House of Ember claimed the top spot!
⚔️ 2nd Place: House of Iron came in with a super close second!

This afternoon, our PSM Renaissance students packed up every single item, and it’s officially on its way to helping hundreds of shelter animals across Charleston. 🐶🐱✨

We are so proud of our students and community for showing up, giving back, and leading with heart!

Happy ! 🥳
