For those of you not familiar with Adopt-A-Class, it is a wonderful foundation that helps to facilitate personal connections between members of the business community and students in pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. The goal of the program is to provide positive role models and develop practical and social skills for the students, while building the culture of philanthropy and teamwork for the business.
For the last three years we have been fortunate to work with Ms. Riley’s kindergarten class at Winton Hills Academy. Each year there is a new group of kids, and each year we spend time in the classroom putting on events, and getting to know the kids.
It’s heart-warming when every time we visit the class their faces light up. And every visit is ended with lots of hugs from the kids. You can truly tell that our interaction with the kids is important to them, and quite honestly to us as well.
To end this school year we had a carnival with the kids. We started outside but some rain showers forced us to move inside, but a great time was still had by all! Games were played, prizes were awarded and of course yummy treats were consumed. All the makings of a GREAT carnival!
Here are some pictures of all the fun!
