Episode 17: Student Voices
For the final episode of our very first podcast season, we turn the microphone over to the voices at the heart of our schools — our students. Two graduating seniors, Ella Connell and Dillon Colaso, join us to reflect on their K–12 journey, from their earliest days in kindergarten to the milestones of their senior year. They share the moments, experiences, and educators that made an impact, how they’ve grown along the way, and what lies ahead as they prepare to take their next steps beyond high school.

Thank you to all who participated in the Buckets of Hope for Jayden Fundraising Event today, especially all of the amazing faculty and staff members who volunteered to let the kids soak them!!! Buckets were sold for $2-$8, so that was a lot of abuse they took for a great cause! The money will be delivered straight to Jayden's mom to help the family during this difficult time.

On Friday, April 3rd, our loved one Jayden (19 years old) got into an accident that resulted in a traumatic brain injury and multiple facial fractures. He is currently comatose and in the ICU after undergoing surgery that involved removing half of his skull.
Due to the extent of his injuries, we are unsure if he will be able to walk, talk, or see. The doctors have been preparing us for the worst. We can only take it hour by hour, day by day.
Jayden is the kind of person that brings people together. He is outgoing, hardworking, smart, and determined. He is a talented athlete, a skilled basketball player, and a great student set to graduate this May. He lights up every room with his humor and fun-loving attitude. Jayden has touched so many lives just by being him. We know he is so strong and we pray that he will make a full recovery, but we know the road to recovery is long.
Jayden's mother, Sheree, has had to stop working to be with her son during this difficult time.
We hope to raise funds to assist Jayden and his family during this unforeseen tragedy. Donations will help cover medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, accommodation near the hospital, daily living expenses, and bills.
This fundraiser has been organized by Jayden's cousin, Alysia, and his aunt, Shara.
All funds raised will be directly transferred to Sheree to support her, Jayden, and his little sister, Larielle, while he is in the hospital and after, as he continues to recover.
We greatly appreciate any donations, no matter the size, made to Jayden and his family. Any contribution allows his family to be by his side as he fights his most difficult battle yet. If you aren't able to donate, please share this page and keep Jayden in your thoughts and prayers.
We pray for Jayden's healing and for his strength, and we thank you for your love and support.
