A huge thank you to First Church for an unforgettable Summer Serve event last week! Our Southgate campus got a major glow-up thanks to the incredible teamwork of First Church volunteers, some of our amazing staff, and dedicated community members!

🌿 Weeds pulled
🌳 Mulch spread
🏫 Grounds beautified

It was a powerful reminder of what makes our school special—Small School, Big Pride!
We’re proud, we’re grateful, and we’re already excited for what’s next. Thank you again, First Church, for your heart and hands!
