Color Run Photos Part 2
🌈 What a COLORFUL night! 🌈
A HUGE thank you to everyone who came out and helped make our very first Color Run such a success! 💜💙💚💛🩷
We had an absolute TON of fun kicking off the school year with our students, families, staff, and community! From the run/walk to the color toss, there were plenty of smiles, laughs, and, of course… LOTS of COLOR! 🎨😂
We are so thankful for everyone who participated, donated, volunteered, and helped make the evening so special. We’re already hoping this can become a yearly tradition! 🥳
Thank you for helping us kick off the school year on the right foot! 👟🌈
Now, sit back and enjoy some of our favorite moments from the night! 📸💜

We held our 20th annual volleyball triathlon today. This day always makes me so proud as a coach because the girls are reminded they can do hard things, and for many it is a physical and mental test. In addition, our parents provide a wonderful breakfast. Thank you parents!! 💜🏐💜
