We had a wonderful turnout for our first Summer Connections stop at Parkway Village. Students received free books, math flashcards, and support with school registration, while families enjoyed popsicles and summer meals prepared by Waynesboro School Nutrition.
Families also entered for a chance to win a Kroger gift card, and School Board member Nigel Stewart even jumped in to pump up bike tires and balls!
