💛 Miss Texas Visits Pine Tree Middle School! 💛

Last week, Pine Tree Middle School students had the incredible opportunity to hear from Miss Texas, Sadie Schiermeyer! 👑

She shared her story about overcoming challenges and talked with students about eating healthy foods and managing emotions in positive ways. Her message was all about finding balance, taking care of yourself, and knowing it’s okay to ask for help.

Thank you, Miss Texas, for inspiring our Pirates to be their best inside and out!
