Our Annapolis Middle School was transformed into a high-energy laser show with a powerful message. We learned that being a Dragon means leading with respect and standing up against bullying.
Watching the lasers light up the room was incredible, but the real "glow up" is seeing our students commit to making AMS a kinder place for everyone. 💡🤝🐉
