Then & Now: 40 Years of Progress 💻
Years ago, students shared just a few computers. Today, our classrooms are equipped with Chromebooks and headphones for every student, smart boards, and technology that supports deeper learning and engagement. This evolution reflects our ongoing commitment to giving every student the tools they need to succeed, today and into the future.
This growth is made possible by the generosity and support of our community, and it’s exactly what we’ll be celebrating at our 40th Anniversary Gala.
✨ Just over a month away! ✨
Join us on February 21 as we celebrate 40 years of transforming lives.
