Hello Hornets!
Happy March! We are so excited to celebrate our monthly recognitions each month. National monthly recognitions serve as an opportunity to spotlight and celebrate various aspects of our society, promoting awareness, appreciation, and unity. These recognitions often focus on important causes, events, or groups, providing a platform to educate, inspire and initiate positive change. They foster a sense of community and shared purpose, encouraging individuals to come together in support of common values and goals. Additionally, these observances can contribute to raising awareness about social issues, promoting inclusivity, and acknowledging the contributions of diverse communities. We pride ourselves on modeling Hornet P.R.I.D.E each day, and therefore, we are pleased to celebrate the following monthly recognitions for the month of March. Thank you for celebrating alongside the Hornets!
