**Casa Grande Students Honor Dr. King Through Community Service**

Casa Grande Union High School students spent the day paying tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy by serving their local community. Members of the CGUHS National Honor Society (NHS), Freshman Student Council, and Girls Flag Football team collaborated on a community service project focused on yard work for two local homes.

The students worked together to clean and improve the outdoor spaces, demonstrating their commitment to service and teamwork. This project highlighted the importance of giving back and the impact young people can have in fostering a spirit of care and community.

The Casa Grande Union High School District showed its gratitude to all the students who participated, recognizing their hard work and dedication. Their efforts reflect the values Dr. King stood for and serve as an inspiration for others to make a positive difference in their communities.
