Huge thank you to Santa for making a special stop at Hutchins Elementary today! Every single student at Hutchins got the chance to say hi, and our kids lit up like Christmas trees the moment he walked in. The joy he brought was the real deal.
We are grateful he took time out of his very full December schedule to remind our kids that the season is all about wonder, kindness, and a little sparkle of fun.
Thank you, Santa, for making today unforgettable for our Ricebirds. You made hundreds of little hearts a whole lot happier, and we appreciate you more than you know!

On November 12th, 99 HOSA members, along with Mrs. Kacer & Mrs. Hopper, attended HOSA Night at the Rockets. We were able to sit in on a panel of physical therapists who work with the team, followed by a Q&A. We got to attempt free throws on the court, and a few even made it! After we grabbed some food and did a little shopping, we watched the Rockets win! See the fun here: HOSA Night At The Rockets Video
