BSSS Students Make Wish Come True

Students in grades 1-8 through hosted a Tea Party for 5-year-old Make-A-Wish recipient. Chloe.

Chloe’s wish was to have tea with a princess and her puppy, Sophie, that she got following her brain surgery in March. Everyone was decked out in Disney costumes including Chloe as a princess.

Chloe was presented with a scroll that announced “her wish was our command” and that she and her family will be spending a week at Disneyworld! Chloe said she hoped to meet Cinderella and promised to take lots of pictures to share.

BSSS Teacher and Wish Coordinator, Rena Knopf said, “It is because of our students’ hard work and dedication to this cause that we, the little school that could, was able to grant Chloe’s wish.”

“Oh, she will talk and talk and talk about this day for a long time,” said Chloe’s mom.
