🎤 Their name will be announced during morning announcements.
📜 They will receive a special certificate and prize from Mrs. Fink.

We can’t wait to celebrate our amazing students and the great things they are doing every day! 💛
We’re so lucky to have Family Guidance working with our schools ❤️. They provide support through assigned counselors and three school social workers. Together, they’ve put together this wonderful guide with local resources for families.
These guides can help with things like:
🍎 Food, clothing & hygiene
🩺 Health care & hospitals
🤝 Community organizations
📞 Crisis & safety resources
We know that sometimes families may need a little extra support in addition to what the school can provide. These resources are here to give you options and places to turn whenever you need them 🙌.
