Student and Community Performance Opportunities

"I enjoyed myself and you helped me take pride in myself. We learned many things like vocabulary and anatomy how to use our cervical, thoracic and lumbar spine; to have a strong rectus muscle and stand upright. Then at the end we did a big performance in front of the school. After it, I felt good about myself. I felt like I was someone special. "

Keanna Jackson, 4th grade student
