🦅♥️ A huge THANK YOU to Youth Sports Unlimited (YSU)!

YSU has once again gone above and beyond for our students and programs. Their generous donation is helping support new high school and middle school football helmets, new high school football jerseys, an outdoor portable pitching mound, and even contributed funds to help offset the cost of our band trip to Nashville this summer. 🎉

It is incredibly humbling to have organizations like YSU step up in such meaningful ways. Their continued support strengthens our programs and creates opportunities for our students across the district.

We appreciate everything YSU has done and continues to do for our school community. 🫶🏽
