Throughout the Spring season, our poet-athletes worked to make their communities a better place. They beautified their schools by planting flowers, cleaning up, and putting out recycling bins. They helped the neighborhood animals with donations to shelters and made cards to help brighten neighbor's days! We love seeing the amazing ways our students chose to help those around them!
