What an incredible accomplishment! 🎊

We are proud to recognize one of our students, Benimar Santiago-Castaneda, who earned a perfect score on the 4th Grade FAST Mathematics End-of-Year Assessment last year. Achieving a perfect score is a rare feat and demonstrates exceptional mathematical understanding, perseverance, and academic excellence.

Congratulations to Benimar, his family, and teachers who helped make this success possible. We are so proud of you! ⭐
