Eye of the Dragon
John Dewey Academy of Learning * November 19 - 23, 2018*
Appreciation
Hello Dragon Families!
This week is the perfect time to say thank you for choosing to be part of our learning community. We may be a small school, but as the students like to say, we are one big family. We appreciate the many gifts that each of you bring to this family and know that our school wouldn't be what it is without each and every one of you.
We have so many helpers at John Dewey - students who give tours, serve as partners for our weekly shadows, offer support for one another, tutor in math, provide feedback on project work, assist staff members with various tasks, take on leadership roles, and organize fundraising events for those in need, to name a few. We also have parents who volunteer their time to teach seminars and workshops, chaperone field experiences, donate supplies, and organize fundraisers.
I also want to take a moment to say thanks to our dedicated staff members who work tirelessly to provide a unique and progressive learning experience for our students.
I am very thankful to have the privilege of working with such amazing students, families, and staff every day. John Dewey Academy of Learning is a special place because all of you are here.
Thank you for being a dragon! We appreciate you and we believe in you.
With gratitude,
Jen + the JDAL Staff
