June is filled with opportunities to celebrate and mark milestones. Whether it is graduating from pre-k to K, or college to career, taking time to recognize and honor achievements is a chance to create family memories and start or continue traditions.
Summer marks warmer days and evenings, more time with family and friends, and some of my favorite activities of the year. I love the more relaxed feel of later dinners and taking our dog on evening walks. And, let’s not forget those dads, Father’s Day is June 18. My husband is a golfer so we usually spend the day on a golf course, followed by a bbq at home. We would love to hear your traditions, please share them with us on social media, including our Facebook, Instagram, or LinkedIn.
Also in June, The Children’s Cabinet is excited and proud to celebrate our Redfield Academy high school graduates! This amazing group of students has overcome obstacles and truly persevered, we are thrilled to recognize their achievements in a special ceremony with their families. We will be featuring each graduate on our social media in the days leading up to graduation and you will find more about Redfield Academy in this newsletter.
Happy June to you all and thank you for your continued support!

Redfield Academy is The Children's Cabinet's on-site high school, helping Washoe County students who are two or more semesters behind in school to catch up and achieve graduation. Youth find success at Redfield because they appreciate the small setting with teacher attention, they follow a personalized plan for reaching academic and personal goals, and they have access to counseling services and family resources.
