Eagles' Nest
Family edition - January 2019
Principal's Message
WMS Families,
I hope you all had the opportunity to rest and have quality time with your families over the holidays! It is important to rejuvenate, refocus, and have a renewed sense of purpose.
The new year brings a new semester. A time to reflect on the past and prepare for the future. With their new classes, I hope students are able to explore their passions or find new ones. I encourage our students to continue to hone their strengths and lean on them when there are bumpy times. Also, I'd like students to reflect on what they would like to do differently. We can all learn and grow from events and decisions that didn't produce the result we want, so by reflecting and then acting, we are able to make improvements!
I have appreciated the support from our WMS families throughout the first semester and look forward to continuing our journey in educating our kids together.
