Preparing for the New Year

I welcome you all back from the Thanksgiving Holidays. I hope and trust that you were able to enjoy friends and loved ones during the break, and I know that you enjoyed the few days of rest that you received. Now we prepare for the mad dash to Christmas. Everyone is busy gathering those special gifts for their loved ones, and we often allow ourselves to become stressed during this time of year. Let's keep things in perspective and remember just how blessed each of us is in this country.

Teachers and students will be busy during the next few weeks. We have a lot of instruction to do because we know that we will not have a lot of time after the holidays to prepare for the new testing that will be taking place this spring. I know that everyone is busy during this time of year, but it is very important to keep your child's education in the forefront. Please contact your child's teacher if you have any questions or concerns. We are here to work together to insure the success of every child.
