Franklin School recently had a wonderful opportunity to visit KHS and spend time with some very special guests: baby chicks! š„
They were able to observe the chicks up close, gently touch them, and even had the chance hold them. M any students stepped outside of their comfort zones and engaged with curiosity and excitement. To make the day even more memorable, each student was able to bring home their own stuffed chick as a keepsake! We are so grateful to the Success Program for inviting us and creating such a fun, interactive, and inclusive experience for our students. Opportunities like this help build confidence, encourage exploration, and create lasting memories.
