Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Our school had the honor of being present at the ribbon cutting ceremony of the first of 2 new Michael Jordan Family Clinics and got to see THE Michael Jordan, himself!
Each heart is an individually painted canvas created by some of our students using their own tints of red and green. This masterpiece is displayed proudly in the lobby of the new Michael Jordan Family Clinic. Thanks to Mr. Rick, our art teacher and to all the participating students for this beautiful piece.
