It is hard to believe we are in the ninth week of school and our final week of quarter one. The time has moved quickly and it is exciting and also encouraging to see the immense growth of each of my scholars in just a short time. Our time together has been lovely and each of them hold a special place in my heart. We work hard but we find time to enjoy each other, have fun, and grow in our relationships as classmates, partners in learning, as friends, and as a community. We have had a very successful first quarter. Please review the upcoming dates and important information to prepare you and your scholar for the weeks ahead.
