Community partners also joined the event, reinforcing their support and strengthening the connections between schools and the broader community.
“This event is more than just a kickoff. It’s a reminder of the powerful work happening in our schools and the collective belief we share in what’s possible for our students,” said Annittra Atler, Senior Director for the Office of Innovation and Project Director for the Sustaining the Future grant. “We are planting the seeds of innovation, equity and environmental leadership, and those seeds are already beginning to grow. We are beyond excited for this next school year."
