Congratulations to all the students honored at this year's ceremony. At the beginning of the school year, our Middle School students collectively chose Kindness, Respect, and Growth as the values that would guide their community. Seeing those values reflected so clearly in the achievements recognized at the ceremony is a powerful reminder of who they are—and the impact they're already making.
