The Tiger Times
Week of August 14 - August 18
Hello Tiger Family!
I hope you're having a fantastic weekend and making some time for yourselves. We have a busy week ahead and now is a good time to think about what your "big rocks" are and your "pebbles". Talk with your teams about the first day and week with kiddos. What are the ways you will set the tone and expectations for the year? What will they talk about with their families when they get home that first day? As I sit amongst unpacked boxes and an unfinished school, I feel, like I'm sure all of you do, a bit anxious about our being ready.
Then I think about the fact that it's the connections we make with them this week, the passion we show for what we do every day, our commitment to their children's educations....that's what our families will see and remember this week. And THAT is in each of our circles of influence! I can't wait to see you all tomorrow!
Proud to be your principal,
Shelley
