🎅 A very special visitor stopped by Joyce Bullock Elementary School this week! 🎅

Our CEO, Phil Kabler, traded in the business suit for a red suit and white beard, spreading holiday cheer as Santa Claus. Thank you to the school staff for welcoming us and helping make the day magical. Moments like these reflect the heart of CDS and our commitment to showing up for our community - sometimes in unexpected (and festive!) ways. 🎄🎁
