🌟 DAY OF SERVICE | More than 200 JCPS middle school student leaders stepped up to give back across Louisville today. Explore Ambassadors volunteered at 11 different organizations—making a real impact in our community. 👥 The largest group—70+ Explore Ambassadors from seven schools—packed food boxes at Love the Hungry. 🪑 25 students from Ramsey Middle built chairs and bicycles for refugee families’ apartments with Catholic Charities of Louisville. We’re so proud of these young leaders who are choosing to lead with heart, service, and purpose!
