We heard everything from “I did 11 laps!” to “I’m so tired!” to “Can I have 2 popsicles if I run 8 laps instead of 4?” These kids crushed it. They encouraged each other. They giggled. They chased bubbles. Here are a couple of our favorite moments from the Fun Run day! Huge thanks to all who came out to volunteer and cheer, and thanks to those who couldn’t come but hyped your student up before the big day and celebrated their win when they came home!!
This community is truly special. We thank you – for your generosity, for rallying friends and family, for getting your kids excited. 276 families donated amounts ranging from $5-$2,000! We are SO excited about what we’ll be able to do with these funds and we could not have done it without you.
Thank you to all who attended our 2nd Annual Trunk or Treat event! It was a great turnout and the kids had a blast. Special thanks to Ray Arceneaux and Lizzy Williams for coordinating such a fun night. And congratulations to the winning Trunk: Wayne’s World courtesy of Brown and Cunningham!

We made it! $64,000! Yes, that’s up from our letter in student folders! We have so much to be proud of and we can’t say thanks enough to this community, both here in Nashville and extended, for helping us meet this goal. We are so excited to spoil our teachers, bring some incredible experiences to our Panthers, and make sure each and every student has an incredible rest of the year.
Peek at the sponsors on the back of the Fun Run t-shirts and on the magnets and go support them. And again, to all of you, thank you.
