A heartfelt thank you to the team at Warren Elementary for being such gracious hosts; retired teacher Glenna Webb for speaking; and to our outstanding student leaders for sharing their insights about the school.

The Visionary Circle was also introduced at the event. The Visionary Circle is a $1000+ annual investment to strengthen and support experiences for all WCPS students, faculty, and staff. To learn more, click here.
