🎀 Celebrating Strength, Hope, and Unity at Heather Hill 🎀 Congratulations to 2nd-grade teacher Ms. Callahan for transforming her breast cancer journey into a source of inspiration! With support from Ms. Humm, Mr. Small, and the entire Heather Hill School community, Ms. Callahan led our school’s first-ever Think Pink Day this morning in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Ms. Callahan and staff welcomed local breast cancer survivors to a special breakfast, creating space for them to share their stories over coffee and light refreshments. We were honored to have Darnesha Evans from the Cancer Support Center and Project Kennedy join us, offering valuable resources and information. Throughout October, the entire school has collected donations to support these amazing organizations. Heather Hill is incredibly proud of our school community for coming together to spread positivity and show support for all staff, students, and families impacted by cancer—especially Ms. Callahan, the heart behind today's event. Thank you to everyone who participated and made this celebration one of strength, hope, and unity! 🎀
