LONG TERM PLANNING!!
It is January so it is time to do some long term planning.
We INTEND to travel to Huntington University this summer for Band Camp July 25-30.
We INTEND to take our large trip in March 2022.
"INTEND" - we are planning for these events and it is our intent to plan them "as normal". We hope things will be back to "normal" enough to begin returning to "normal". We also realize that virus related circumstances may change those plans. But for now - it is on!!!
We, of course will be making decisions with the well-being of students in mind first. As we continue to traverse these uncertain times we will do our best to keep kids safe - meanwhile giving them the experience they expect and deserve.
More information on BOTH of these events will be coming home soon!!

Actions...
What beautiful words from Amelia Earhart.
One smile, one small gesture, one word of kindness can go along way to planting roots that grow into trees. We should all seek opportunities to give these gestures. And when they are given to us... we should pass them on.
I challenge you this week to find a reason to smile... a reason to give love... perform a kind act. Make your world a better place.
