Our students recently completed a hand sewing project focused on creating custom potholders — and the results were absolutely amazing! This project is a hands-on opportunity to build essential life skills. Throughout the process, students practiced:
Time Management: Planning their work and staying on task to meet deadlines.
Communication: Collaborating with peers, asking questions, and sharing techniques.
Following Directions: Carefully executing each step to ensure quality and safety.
Each potholder is a reflection of their creativity, patience, and growing confidence in hand sewing. We’re so proud of their hard work and the beautiful, functional pieces they produced!

🎃 Scarecrow Alert on Main Street! 🏴‍☠️
Our Student Council and SOS program teamed up to decorate one of the Main Street light poles for October — and let’s just say, it’s a must-see! The theme? A Buccaneer-inspired Scarecrow “What’s Your Goal?” complete with little pumpkins holding signs of their goals. 🧡
Now, here’s the twist… we thought the scarecrow’s head was going to be a pumpkin. Spoiler alert: it’s not. And honestly? It’s hilariously perfect! 😂
You’ll find it right in front of the courthouse. There’s a tote next to the straw bales with a whiteboard and markers — write down your goal and snap a pic with Captain Leput Sparrow herself!
📸 Drop your photo in the comments of this post — we can’t wait to see your goals and your pirate poses!
