SPOTLIGHT ON STAGES

Spotlight featuring Connecting Generations:

Our fourth grade students proudly presented their capstone project, Connecting Generations, to a large audience last Wednesday. The event was a clear success, living up to its name as students engaged in meaningful, heartfelt conversations with their pen pals. Their enthusiasm and connection were evident throughout the day.

The impact of this experience was perhaps best captured in the words of the participating elders:

“Meeting my pen pals was such a delight, and we had such a good conversation together. Talk about spirit lifting!! The entire experience has been absolutely perfect. I’m so grateful to be a part of this program.”

“Thank you for including me in the privilege of being able to read letters from fourth graders.
May their paths through life be as full of promise and happiness as their letters seem to suggest.”

We invite you to enjoy some photos of our students and their pen pals below, which capture the joy and connection shared during this special project.  Due to technical difficulties, the rest of the pictures will be sent out by teachers at a later date.
