🚌💙Our Tavares Middle School volleyball team took a moment to show some love to the amazing bus drivers who get us safely to and from school every day! The players held up signs with words of encouragement and gratitude, and the drivers showed their appreciation right back with some enthusiastic honks!

We are incredibly grateful to the Lions Club of Tavares for their generous support of our Adopt-A-Family program!

Thanks to their fundraising efforts, 20 students right here on our campus received brand-new backpacks filled with school supplies to help them succeed throughout the year.

Programs like Adopt-A-Family make a real difference in the lives of our students, and we couldn't do it without community partners like the Lions Club.

Thank you for investing in our kids and our school! 🙌📚
