We had a great time last night thanks to our amazing partner, Carver Road Baptist. They provided games, a bounce house, hot dogs, chips, drinks, popcorn, snow cones for our Fall Festival. Thanks to teachers/teams who decorated for trunk or treat, too! We are so glad many of our families showed up to enjoy the evening with us. #ColtsCan #FallFestival

Yesterday was Jumpstart's Read for the Record featuring the book, Piper Chen Sings! Classes read the book aloud or watched a video of the superintendent or the books' authors reading it. This is a nationwide event and we had fun taking part in this collaborative read. #ColtsCan #ReadForTheRecord
