Our campus was full of green today as students and staff showed off their festive spirit for St. Patrick's Day! From shamrock shades to lucky leprechaun vibes, the energy was unmatched! Students also enjoyed fun, festive stations filled with creativity, laughter, and a little extra luck of the Irish.

Congratulations to Karter Holmes for earning Loggerhead Leader of the Day at Carolyn Lewis School! Your positive attitude and leadership make a difference. We’re proud of you!

But Friday the 13th won’t make us sway- CLS teachers still led the way!

Just a reminder!
