We wanted to share a heartwarming moment from Health class: Mr. VonBerege took the time to teach the entire Freshman class how to tie ties, just in time for Prom.
It's these small acts of kindness and support that make our school community so special. We're grateful to Mr. VonBerege for going above and beyond to help our students feel confident and prepared for important events like Prom.
