🌟 Drury Teachers and Leaders at Babson College! 🌟

This summer, Drury educators took part in a three-day Springpoint training at Babson College, where they collaborated to practice designing transformational learning experiences for students.

Through hands-on workshops and deep discussions, teachers and leaders explored innovative approaches to instruction that center student voice, engagement, and real-world application. The work at Babson reflects our commitment to reimagining learning so every Drury student is prepared to thrive in the future.

Meals are free for all children under the age of 18. Kids are expected to be there in person to pick up their meals. However, a parent or guardian may pick up meals if the children are not present. Per grant requirements, we need to ensure meals are for kids. As such, we are required to ask who the meals are for if the children are not there, but we do not require any form of ID, proof of residency, or other documentation. Thank you for your cooperation.
