We are so proud of our Barrack Middle School students, who were eager to help and take some action in the aftermath of the the riots on Capitol Hill. Students offered notes of thanks or personal prayer for the workers who were cleaning up the mess and to those that fearlessly protected our government leaders. Rep. Madeleine Dean will graciously deliver them directly to the Capitol next week. These small gestures create a big jump start in the effort to repair our world.
