💙🗑️ FIVE BAGS. TWO HOURS. ONE AMAZING TEAM. 🗑️💙

Making a difference one piece of trash at a time! 👏

Our National Honor Society students recently hit the road for their first Adopt-A-Highway cleanup, and the results were incredible! In less than two hours, these dedicated students collected FIVE extra-large bags of garbage while helping keep our community beautiful. 🌎✨

Their hard work, service, and commitment to giving back make us incredibly proud to be Lake Hawks! 💙

⚠️ Drivers, please help keep our students safe! NHS will be out at least two more times this year. When you see volunteers along the roadside, please slow down, stay alert, and use extra caution as you pass.

Let's hear it for these community champions! 👏💙
