JumpStart Midland

🌟 Jumpstart Midland Summer Planning Retreat – Day 2 🌟

Today we focused on forward planning at a high level, taking time to look beyond the day-to-day and align around the future we are building together.

What stood out most was the shared commitment around the table. Every conversation centered on one question:

“How do we create lasting change for Midland children and families?”

As we look ahead, we are reminded that strong organizations don’t happen by accident, they are built through intentional planning, collaboration, and a clear vision.

Thankful for a team that is willing to dream big, ask hard questions, and stay focused on the mission.

Day 1 of the Jumpstart Midland Summer planning Retreat, in the books ☀️

Today was all about reflection, learning, and looking ahead. As a team, we took time to celebrate our wins, reflect on lessons learned, and dream about what’s next for Jumpstart Midland and the families we serve.

Through honest conversations, sticky notes, shared ideas, and plenty of collaboration, we were reminded that our greatest strength is the people around the table. Every voice matters, and every team member plays a role in helping us move our mission forward.

As we continue this retreat, we are focused on growing stronger, working smarter, and staying committed to ensuring every child in Midland has access to the high-quality education they deserve.

Happy Father’s Day from Jumpstart Midland! 💙

Today we celebrate all fathers, father figures, and mentors who lead with love, show up with consistency, and make a lasting impact in the lives of our children and community. We appreciate you. ✨

❤️💛💚 Happy Juneteenth 🖤

Today, we honor freedom, reflect on history, and celebrate the strength, resilience, and contributions of those who came before us.

As we continue to educate, empower, and uplift the next generation, we remember that knowledge of our past helps shape a brighter future. 💫

Midland, TX our hearts are heavy.

We pray for every victim, every grieving family, and every first responder who has answered the call with courage and compassion.

In moments like these, we are reminded that our greatest strength is found in standing together. May we surround one another with love, extend grace to those who are hurting, and trust God to carry us through the days ahead.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18

Hello June 🌻

Wishing everyone a fun, safe, and relaxing summer filled with family time, laughter, and memories made together. 💫

And don’t forget to keep those brains growing! 📚🧠
Read often, practice math in fun ways, and stay engaged all summer long. 🤩

Meeting parents where they are 💫

We had a great conversation with a local parent who is seeking educational options that better fit her child’s individual needs. From advocacy to school choice, these conversations matter. 💛🖤

Families deserve support, resources, and a safe space to learn about the opportunities available for their children.

The work continues… one parent, one child, and one conversation at a time. ✨
