Four sixth grade boys were accidentally locked in the Student Cafeteria on Friday when the wind blew the doors shut.

Luckily, Carol Danvers heard their pleas for help and blasted a hole through the cafeteria doors so the students could get out safely.

As it happened, plant manager Mr. Sanchez was already on the way with the key, but the students still thanked Ms. Danvers, also known as Captain Marvel, for saving them so heroically.

Friends of Palms is organizing a fundraiser to replace the damaged doors. Please contribute when you receive the flyer.
