🥕 Taste the Rainbow... of Carrots! 🥕

Today’s salad bar featured colorful rainbow carrots grown locally at Stick & Stone Farm in Ithaca, NY!

A huge shout-out to Daryl from Building & Grounds for helping make this local connection possible by picking up the carrots so our Food Service team could serve them fresh to our students.

It’s always exciting to bring local produce from nearby farms straight to our school lunch trays — supporting local agriculture and giving students the chance to taste the difference!

Yesterday was truly one for the books! 📖🙌 A huge thank you to Victoria Jamieson, co-author of “When Stars Are Scattered”, for visiting Lansing Middle School and sharing her story, artwork, and wisdom with our students.

Our entire middle school read "When Stars Are Scattered", so meeting the author behind the book was an incredible full-circle moment! Students were captivated by Victoria’s journey as an author and inspired by her message about how storytelling can change lives and strengthen communities. 🏘️

Her visit left our future authors and artists feeling inspired! 🎨
