Remember the Mario Coin Wars?? This is who your generosity helped support! Three scholarships totaling $2,000 were awarded this evening to JJ Cash, Abby Sharlow, and Hayley Ale-Beltran (not pictured). We’re so proud of our current students and families for coming together to raise money for such a meaningful cause that gives back to students in our community. What a great reminder that even small acts can make a big impact!

It’s one of our favorite nights of the year — the night our former students return to their elementary school to reminisce, reconnect, and celebrate the next milestone- high school graduation!

The future is incredibly bright for this group of Oak Lane alumni, and we’re grateful to have played a small part in helping shape the amazing young adults they are today.

Once an Oak Lane student, always an Oak Lane student! 💚🐾🌳
