❤️SPREADING THE LOVE❤️ Third- graders in Mrs. Urbay's class at Felix A. Williams Elementary School completed their community give-back project by creating homemade valentines to give to elderly members of our community. The cards were delivered to a local assisted living facility to be shared with residents who may need an extra dose of love this #ValentinesDay. #ALLINMartin 👊

Our thoughts remain with Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, Broward County Public Schools and the City of Parkland as we remember the 17 lives lost and many more who were injured during a senseless tragedy four years ago. We will never forget. #MSDStrong🦅

Kindness and compassion are meant to be shared today and every day. Happy #ValentinesDay, Martin County! #ALLINMartin💓

Happy Valentine's Day to all of our FAWE Families ❤️
