Last week, we celebrated the graduation of over 40 Sweet Home students participating in English as a New Language (ENL). These Panthers achieved "Commanding" on the NYSESLAT exam and are now considered proficient in English. Thank you to the amazing teachers behind their success, and especially their families for their support. #WeAreSweetHome You can find the full photo album here.
