Time Capsule Update:
In May we were able to uncover a Time Capsule that was buried by Captain Strong students in the year 2000!
It was a fun time to connect with the Teacher in charge at the time Carla Nalley as well as a few students who participated that are all grown up :)
Please enjoy these photos below of a few items that were salvaged/ cleaned up on display near the main office.
Enjoy these last few days of Summer & we will see you soon!
