During the 3rd Quarter AR Challenge, students across all grades worked hard to read books and earn points, contributing to a meaningful cause. The 6th grade class selected St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital as the recipient, recognizing the hospital’s commitment to helping children and families without the burden of medical costs.
Thanks to the dedication of our students and staff, along with the generous support of Mr. and Mrs. Baden, the TC community raised an incredible $1,600 for St. Jude. This achievement reflects the power of teamwork, goal-setting, and giving back.
This effort would not have been possible without the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Baden. Mrs. Baden reminds me of Theo, the main character in Theo of Golden—someone who notices when others need help and gives selflessly. Each day, she supports and includes others, sharing her time, energy, and kindness—not for recognition, but simply because it reflects who she is.
A heartfelt thank you to Mr. and Mrs. Baden for their generosity and encouragement in helping our students make a difference!
