𝘍𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘤 𝘍𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴 is a remarkable club that started at Bailey last year, uniting students of diverse abilities to foster meaningful connections and friendships. This year, members from both Bailey Middle School and West Haven High School are continuing their journey together, proving that distance can't diminish their bond. Last week, seventh and eighth graders visited the high school to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. They participated in engaging icebreaker activities, enjoyed a special breakfast, collaborated on a creative poster, and explored the school through a guided tour. It was an inspiring day of reconnection, celebrating the power of friendship among truly fantastic friends!
