💙 Protecting the Den: Happy SRO Appreciation Day! 🖤
Today, we are taking a moment to give a massive shoutout to the man who keeps our campus safe and our spirits high—Deputy Lane Burns! From our Pre-K littles to our graduating Seniors, Deputy Burns is a familiar face who does so much more than just "patrol." Whether he’s cracking a joke in the hallway, sharing a laugh with students, or pushing our athletes to hit new PRs while helping coach the Powerlifting team, his impact on Stanley High is immeasurable. 🏋️‍♂️💪

Deputy Burns embodies what it means to serve and protect with a smile. We are so grateful to have an SRO who truly loves our kids and our school.

Help us show him some love in the comments! 👇
- Share a favorite memory or "Deputy Burns joke."
- Drop a "Thank You"
- Share a picture of Officer Burns
