It’s common for elementary student to exchange cards and treats for Valentine’s Day, but last week 3rd and 4th graders from Finch Elementary gave away something even more sentimental: their hearts. The art students from Mr. Nguyen’s class created pastel chocolate boxes in the shape of a heart and had them delivered to patients in the ICU at Medical City of McKinney.
This collaboration between the hospital and the campus culminated during Valentine’s Day and Love Week as the ICU nurses visited Finch Elementary to pick up the art pieces. They returned to Medical City over the weekend and handed out the precious artwork to their patients.
Enjoy your long weekend! To honor President's Day, students will have off on February 17-18. We will see our Falcons on Wednesday, February 19.

💝 Spreading Love Through Art! 💝
Our 3rd and 4th graders poured their creativity into a special Valentine’s Day project in art class with Mr. Danh Nguyen, crafting a beautiful box of chocolates—but with a twist! 🎨🍫
Today, we had a heartwarming visit from Hassaan Baig, Myra Tapp, and Trista Smith from Medical City McKinney, who accepted the students' artwork and will be delivering it to patients to brighten their day.
This is what kindness, creativity, and community are all about! ❤️✨
