Students at Woodward Career Academy (Saint Louis Public Schools) journeyed from the classroom to the stage at their culminating performance of On Your Toes with teaching artist Margaret Hassenstab! Together, they learned the art of ballet and developed their own choreography to “dance” a story!

This morning, 19 incredible #volunteers from MiTek came together at Springboard as part of their Culture Builders' Summit. Representing 5 countries, they embodied the spirit of collaboration: in just 90 minutes, they assembled 1,273 Arts & Learning Packs! #STLArtPacks
