This morning, the faculty and staff at Olympia North participated in a team-building activity that brought both creativity and reflection to our day. Each person decorated a flower pot and planted a succulent—serving as a beautiful metaphor for the time, love, and care we pour into our students to help them thrive and grow throughout the year.
