Yesterday, Buffalo Bots spent the day visiting Spring Valley’s CTE Program, where our students got a first‑hand look at the incredible opportunities in engineering and robotics.
A huge thank‑you to Mr. Stacy and his students for welcoming us, answering questions, and showing our future Wolves what this pathway can offer their futures. Experiences like this help our kids dream bigger, plan smarter, and see themselves in the next chapter of their robotics journey.
🖤 Proud of our Buffalo Bots and excited for what’s ahead. 🖤

📚✨ A day filled with books, smiles, and the joy of reading!
Our Read to Me students had a wonderful time delivering books to our Pre-K and elementary students thanks to our amazing Read Aloud Coordinator. Seeing the excitement on the students’ faces made the day even more special!
To top it all off, our Read to Me students were also gifted books of their very own to keep and enjoy at home. ❤️📖
Moments like these remind us how powerful reading can be in bringing students together and inspiring a lifelong love of learning.
