- Happy New Year!- Hope all of our Kendall Families had a great Holiday break! I am looking forward to coming back to see smiling faces! I also wanted to share my excitement about being chosen to participate as a volunteer for the Lifetouch Memory Mission trip in Constanza, Domincan Republic. I will volunteering Jan. 13-21 and joining other school leaders and volunteers from across North America to help add on a library, computer lab, and infirmary to the Cecaini school. I feel blessed to be able to participate and give back through this amazing experience. I will be sharing a video in the classrooms this coming Tuesday and will be hosting a band-aid drive to help stock the infirmary. If your student would like to participate please have them bring a small box of band-aids on January 8 or 9 and drop them off in the office. If you would like to give in other ways check out the Dominicans breaking ground and more about the mission trip at https://www.facebook.com/Mrs-Wolff-Memory-Mission-Trip-102649151228831/ or https://www.facebook.com/LifetouchMemoryMission/ In addition our 5th graders will get to participate in a Facebook live visit with me from the Dominican Republic and have me answer their questions during the trip. Thank you for your support! If you need support or have questions while I am gone please be sure and reach out to our Assistant Principal, Brea Green.
