👟💙 We are so grateful for Kids of Kanawha!

Before the first bell of the school year rang, they made sure students across Kanawha County were prepared by donating brand-new shoes to:

Pratt Elementary • Riverside High • Dupont Middle • Malden Elementary • Edgewood Elementary • West Side Middle • Mary C. Snow West Side Elementary • Flinn Elementary • Capitol High • Hayes Middle • Cedar Grove Elementary

Their generosity is a wonderful reminder of how strong our community is when we come together to support students. Thank you, Kids of Kanawha, for investing in our children and helping them start the year with confidence! 🙌✨

🌊🐟 From the Classroom to the Creek — Malden Students Making Waves! 🐟🌊 Morris Creek Watershed in Montgomery is now home to 25 more brown trout! 🎉📸 Students from Malden Elementary gathered to release the trout they’ve been raising all year as part of the Trout in the Classroom program. For the past 10 years, Malden teacher Tonya Crist has led this, hands-on program that turns students into young scientists, conservationists, and changemakers. They raise trout from eggs, test water quality, explore food webs, and learn the importance of protecting our environment — all while having a blast doing it! 🧪🌿 Thanks to hard work form countless people in the community — and the ongoing partnership with the Morris Creek Watershed Association — Malden students get to be part of something real and impactful. 🙌💧 Today’s event was a true celebration of learning, legacy, and environmental renewal. Former Malden students, now in Riverside High School’s Grow Your Own program and Marshall University’s Biology & Environmental Science program, returned to present their award-winning STEM projects — from boosting firefly and bat populations 🦇✨ to supporting native pollinators 🌼🐝. Two even won the National STEM Challenge Championship and presented their research in Washington, D.C.! 🔬 After the release, students went on a hayride, did STEM activities (thanks to the WVSU 4H program for providing the STEM kits), and made some animal tracks! 👏 We're so proud of these students, past and present, for showing what’s possible when education meets purpose. 📷💪
