Weekly Updates

This morning, our Middle School students received a fresh perspective on challenges and setbacks from author and speaker Michelle Icard. They learned ways to turn challenges into opportunities for growth, build stronger connections, and navigate stress and anxiety. Thank you to our Office of Community Engagement and Wellness, and the PGPA for making this conversation possible!
