"Never believe that a few caring people can't change the world. For, indeed, that's all who ever have."
-Margaret Mead
We hope that each of you had a Happy Thanksgiving holiday and found some time to rest and relax with friends and family. We have a short window of time this year between Thanksgiving and the winter holiday break. Please continue to keep your students engaged with meaningful lessons and activities throughout these next couple of weeks. We appreciate the job that you do and the care you provide your students. You can't always see when it happens, but you are changing the world with the impact you make on each student. Please let us know how we can support you. Enjoy and spread joy in the week ahead!
Peter, Sarah, and Aaryn
