🛒From List to Checkout!🛒

Falcon PRIDE took a grocery field trip to Walmart to practice navigating a larger store. Students worked together to gather an ingredient list, took turns finding items, used self-checkout, and practiced bagging groceries. Great teamwork and skill-building all around!

🌟 Falcon PRIDE Success Story! 🌟

We love celebrating milestones - big and small - because they matter! 🥳

This week, Lauren reached an important goal by learning how to tie her shoes, with the support and guidance of Mr. Lincoln. Skills like this build confidence and independence, and we couldn't be more excited about her hard work and determination.

Way to go, Lauren! 👟👏
Moments like these remind us why we do what we do at Falcon PRIDE. 💛💙

Learning goes beyond the classroom!

On Wednesday, April 8th, Falcon PRIDE students attended the SIC Job Fair, where they explored a variety of career paths and engaged with employers. This real-world experience is an important step toward employment success.

Watch the video to hear her take, then let us know yours! 👇

Drop a 🏀 for Basketball or a ⚾ for Baseball in the comments. Let’s see which sport has the most Falcon Pride!
