An important piece to our new schools (and renovated High School) is telling our story through our Pride Wall project. The fourth Pride Wall committee meetings were held on November 5 & 6.  Connecting our rich history with the future is extremely powerful, and these meetings continue with this endeavor. At this latest round of meetings, we nailed down our final template, started to piece together what our walls will look like and made some critical decisions with regards to continuity and flow. We also talked “finish line” and additional picture / memorabilia collection.  Meeting notes can be found HERE.
