At a recent Mustang Buddies meeting, students worked side by side to make playdough, create friendship bracelets, and take on a fun challenge: building a tower with only their homemade playdough and toothpicks.

Mustang Buddies helps build friendships and strengthen our school community. This after-school mentor program pairs younger students with older students, creating meaningful connections across all grade levels.

Several of our students had the opportunity to receive free eye exams and custom eyewear, all provided at no cost!

The iSee program bridges the gap by bringing eye care directly to schools, ensuring that every child has access to the vision services they need to succeed.

A huge thank you to our counselors, who made this possible, and to the doctors and volunteers who donated their time and expertise to provide these services to our students.
