Mr. Long's students at Crescent High recently soared through their drone training and earned their drone pilot licenses! ๐โจ
Thanks to our local 28-Bypass Lowe's (Josh Hall & Mitch Ware) for a generous 80% discount, we secured plastic storage containers to organize our McKinney Vento inventory/donations, ensuring our resources are well-maintained and accessible for those in need. ๐งค๐
Also - Mr. Drennon's Construction Science students at Crescent built and installed storage shelves, adding another layer of organization and efficiency to our efforts.
Together, we're not just building storage shelves; we're constructing stronger futures for our students and families. ๐ #ThankfulThursday #TigersTogether
