We spent last Saturday doing our first round of  cleanup in our courtyard- weeding, pulling up dead bushes, planting new perennials, and adding new mulch to the landscaped areas. What a difference a little TLC made! Thank you to Van Putte Garden Center and Wegmans for their generous donations that made our work possible...

Athena Raises $367 for Smile Train

Thank you to everyone who participated in Athena Cares's Book Bag/Hat Day on Thursday, March 29 . Together, we raised $367.59 to benefit Smile Train! Thanks to you, Smile Train will be able to do even more to help children around the world who are born with Cleft Lip or Cleft Palate, which keeps children from being able to eat and/or talk properly. In some places, they may be abandoned by their families, refused schooling, or unable to hold jobs. The surgeries Smile Train provides takes all of these problems away and gives kids the opportunity to thrive! Thank you again to everyone who supported these efforts!

New Bulletin Board Spreads Positivity

After writing inspirational messages for our school community, we put up this "Take What You Need" bulletin board.

Anyone who is having a bad day or just needs a "pick-me-up" can read them and take one that speaks to him or her. We have had several students and staff take messages and we keep replacing them with more...
