Mrs. Edwards and her amazing students put kindness into action this quarter by creating 70 hygiene kits for those in need. With the help of our incredible families, this project turned into something truly special.
The students even got to see where the kits are going, making the experience that much more meaningful. Moments like these remind us how powerful compassion and community can be.
We’ve got some great students doing amazing things! ✨👏
🖤🏴☠️ Raider Nation showed up BIG at Star Middle School today! 🏴☠️🖤
7th grader Karter Ross—a life-long fan and proud Ashton Jeanty superfan—received the surprise of a lifetime thanks to the incredible generosity of the Las Vegas Raiders. After Karter experienced a challenging year due to his mom’s health and the loss of his favorite Raiders hat, the Raiders stepped in without hesitation to brighten his day in the most unforgettable way.
Karter was presented with an amazing swag box that included a new Jeanty jersey, Raiders hat, a signed mini-helmet, and even a personal video message from Ashton Jeanty himself! 🏈✨
A huge thank you to the Eagle High School Varsity Football players for helping deliver this special moment, and to Mrs. Mackenzie Casagrande for making the connection that turned into something truly magical.
Pictured with Karter are his parents, Kris and Kateri Ross, and his grandmother Lynn Ross-Griffin—who also proudly serves our students in nutrition at Star Middle School. 💙
Moments like this remind us how powerful kindness, community, and West Ada school spirit can be.
