About:
On May 2, Charles Campagne School proudly celebrated our local heroes during a First Responders and Law Enforcement Parade — a heartfelt event dedicated to those who serve and protect our community each and every day.
Students lined the driveway with colorful, handmade signs, cheering and waving as emergency vehicles rolled by. The CCS band filled the air with music, setting a festive and emotional tone as we welcomed members of law enforcement, firefighters, EMTs, and other first responders.
In a powerful show of support, the event raised over $600 for @tunnel2towers, an organization committed to honoring the sacrifice of first responders, military heroes, and their families.
Following the parade, guests were treated to a special breakfast hosted by the school — a small token of appreciation for the courage, commitment, and selflessness shown by our community’s finest.
It was a morning filled with pride, gratitude, and unity, reminding us all of the importance of recognizing and supporting those who put others first every day.
