On this #ThankfulThrowbackThursday, we were wanted to express our gratitude again to the amazingly fantastic Saratoga Independent School students. The SISC (Cares) initiative has been a wonderful partnership. Everyone had so much fun playing Bingo...even more laughs were heard with the pumpkin carving escapes! These students provide such a boost of young energy while garnering invaluable empathy - which is oh needed.
