🎾 We’re playing a little catch-up here… but we couldn’t let this one go uncelebrated! Our students enjoyed their last tennis practice of the year, and what a great season it has been! From learning new skills to building confidence on the court, these athletes gave it their all.

☀️ Keep swinging, practicing, and having fun all summer long, guys! We can’t wait to see how much you’ve grown when you return next year. 🎾💙

McDonald’s Night was a BIG hit! 🍟🍔 So many families came out to enjoy dinner, share smiles, and catch their teachers and admin trading in pencils for aprons for the evening! 😂 Our staff may have survived the dinner rush… but we’re not sure the fries survived our students!
