There are many effective ways to reduce stuttering. Doing nothing is not one of them.

MCKINLEY MIDDLE SHINES WITH THE LION KING JR. PERFORMANCES McKinley Middle Academic Magnet School of Visual & Performing Arts’ cast and crew of The Lion King Jr. delivered a spectacular run, including three sold-out elementary school performances. Students not only brought the story to life on stage, but also designed and painted the set, props, and costumes, showcasing their creativity and teamwork. Student Council members helped greet and seat the young audiences, adding to the welcoming atmosphere. The week of performances concluded with public shows on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, giving the community a chance to celebrate the Mustangs’ talent, dedication, and hard work.

AIR FORCE VISITS CATHOLIC HIGH SCHOOL

Catholic High School students got an exciting hands-on experience when a traveling U.S. Air Force asset visited campus. The interactive program offered students a glimpse into life in the Air Force while presenting both physical and mental challenges. Along the way, students had the chance to ask questions and speak directly with Air Force personnel and recruiters. The visit gave the Bears a unique opportunity to explore potential career paths, learn about the demands and rewards of military service, and engage in activities that combined teamwork, problem-solving, and curiosity.
