Painting and s’mores and bears, oh my! 🐻🔎

Students at Bryan Elementary School’s SOAR location enjoyed quite the treat this week! After a successful bear hunt around the school, students snacked on s’mores (some for the first time ever!) and showed off their arts and crafts skills!

Thursday’s SOAR was so fun, we could bear-ly contain our excitement! Can’t wait to see what adventures are in store for next week!
