To celebrate the success of the Honeycomb Cafe this school year, Ms. Reding and Mrs. Warriner's students enjoyed a field trip to the Perry Public Library and Old Souls Bakery. To practice their communication and budgeting skills, students received $10 to spend on anything they wanted. They used the leftover funds to purchase two loaves of fresh bread for the class to snack on. We're so proud of the hard work that this group put in this school year!!!
Our favorite aspect of last week's Celebration Day was definitely the student talent showcases. Whether they were singing, dancing, jump roping, or breakdancing, it took a ton of courage for our elementary students to perform in front of the entire school. We're very proud of them! #PrideInTheHive

Seniors Kayden Bradley and Emily Ruiz, along with their classmates in the Health Careers Academy, joined the Young Ambassadors Program at Noyes Hospital in Dansville. The new initiative is designed to inspire youth to give back through volunteerism while learning more about the healthcare field.
Today, the students took on their first service project - and truly made a difference. Thanks to a generous donation of beautiful blooms from Dogwood Florals in Dansville, the students created handwritten cards and delivered them, with the flowers, to every single patient at Noyes Hospital. Kudos to Kayden, Emily, and their classmates for making the day brighter for so many others! #PrideInTheHive
