Empowering conversations, strong community, and unforgettable moments!
Our Common Ground Summit on Wednesday, July 22nd was truly one for the books. We want to give a heartfelt thank-you to Michael Carter with the Mental Health & Recovery Services Board of Lucas County for his inspiring keynote presentation, and a special thank-you to our moderator, Mr. James Starks, for keeping the conversation flowing so seamlessly.
We couldn’t have asked for a better panel to lead such a meaningful discussion. Thank you to John Hobbs III, Eric Chase, Ernest Bank, Louis Guardiola, and Anthony Amison for sharing your perspectives, leadership, and drive with us. Here are a few quick snaps capturing the day’s energy!

We were excited to welcome news anchor, James Starks to Rise & Shine Academy!📚

While visiting, he has the opportunity to test one of our students’ science fair projects, which focused on the importance of staying off your phone while driving. The project highlighted how distractions behind the wheel can impact reaction time and overall safety. An important message for everyone!

Thank you Mr. James Starks for taking the time to visit, support our students, and engage with their hard work and creativity❤️
