Today's color palette: Spirituality & Generosity. 💜🩶 Whether you're wearing purple to focus on your why or gray to show some love to those around you, today is all about the power of connection. Let's keep this energy going tomorrow by wearing our favorite colors!






Today our students stepped into the real world at the Reality Store! With careers, salaries, and family situations, they had to make real-life budgeting decisions. It was a fun and eye-opening way to learn about financial responsibility and planning for the future! 💸










For Sources of Strength week, our Colts wore blue 💙 and turquoise 🩵
today to celebrate physical health and healthy activities! Wear purple or gray tomorrow!
