Today the St. Louis Cardinals program brought Al Hrabosky and Fred Bird to speak with our kids about teamwork, sportsmanship, and leadership. They shared real‑life stories and practical tips that inspired everyone in the audience. Our students also participated in an essay contest, reflecting on what teamwork means to them.
A big thank you to Al Hrabosky, Fred Bird, and the St. Louis Cardinals program for visiting and inspiring our students!
Fredbird will be visiting our school TOMORROW! Students, wear a Cardinal's shirt or red to show your RED BIRD pride and welcome our special guest. Cardinal's hats may be worn as well. Let's make it a day to remember!
