📚 Miss Elwood & Ms. Beavers (HS English Duo) twinned in denim and their fashionable glasses while diving into the literary universe. If matching brilliance was a vibe—THEY NAILED IT. 🤓✨

🧵 Mrs. Wiggins (Tech Director) & Mrs. Franzen (HS Science) twinned with adorable patchwork designs and gorgeous brunette locks. Cozy chic meets super smart! 🤩
🖤 Ms. Clark (Speech/History) & Ms. Vang (Business Director) strutted through the day in matching blacks + leopard print. Fierce. Confident. Ready to SLAY. 🐆🔥
