±«Óãtv schools celebrate milestone anniversaries in 2024-25 school year?

Our schools in ±«Óãtv have always been places of learning and growth while serving as spaces where our community gathers, connects, and flourishes together. 

As we celebrate the milestone anniversaries of schools this year, we honor the deep-rooted relationships they¡¯ve nurtured, the countless memories they¡¯ve shaped, and the lasting impact they¡¯ve had on students, families, and the wider community. These schools continue to foster a true sense of belonging for all who walk through their doors.
