THANK YOU STEEPLE RUN FAMILIES!
Thank you all so very much for volunteering and teaching us more about your culture, your heritage, and your traditions! We ended up turning our World Exposition Night into a fun party!!
We loved the impromptu dancing as well as the community aspect by having our event in the multipurpose room and gym. We feel like the icing on the cake was getting all of the families to participate together and we enjoyed everyone’s company.
We hope families like all of you continue to be brave and volunteer for our SFCP events! SFCP stands for School, Family, Community Partnership and we certainly felt the love and partnership last night! After all, diversity is the one thing we all have in common. Thank you,
Heather & Bina
