This week, we activate a very special mission — celebrating our incredible School Social Worker, Ms. Sample! She supports our students’ social, emotional, and academic well-being. Whether she’s lending a listening ear, helping students navigate challenges, supporting families, or collaborating with staff, she always leads with compassion and care. Thank you, Ms. Sample, for all that you do for our students and our school community! 💙
