A huge thank you to Ms. Lund and the student yearbook team who put together the AGAPE yearbook this year! All students should have received a free yearbook - see Ms. Lund if you still are in need of one!

Megan Huff Photography has sent out photo gallery links to all students who had their mother/baby or maternity photos taken. Please check in with Angie in the office if you are having trouble logging into your gallery. Printed photos are being mailed to 2025 graduates and any students who do not pick them up before the end of the school year.

The garden beds are all planted - thank you to the students and staff who helped! We hope that families will stop by the gardens later this summer and pick some peppers and cherry tomatoes and herbs!

HUGE thank you to our community corporate partners, BI Worldwide for their generosity and gracious welcome to our students and staff at their Edina offices this past month! We are excited to see where our partnership leads us together next year!

If you were not in a group this year and would like to be next year, let me know! I am at AGAPE Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays and you can call/text me at 651-279-0393 or email me at addie.see@spps.org.
