Dear Families,
Happy Spring! I would like to take the time to tell you how grateful I have been to lead this amazing school! We are down to our last few months of school and are beginning the process of reflecting on how this year went and how to improve for next year. I would greatly appreciate any feedback from you on my leadership over the last year. Please fill out this survey to help me grow!

Book Recommendation
The Sign of the Beaver
by Elizabeth George Speare
Although he faces responsibility bravely, thirteen-year-old Matt is more than a little apprehensive when his father leaves him alone to guard their new cabin in the wilderness. When a renegade stranger steals his gun, Matt realizes he has no way to shoot game or to protect himself. When Matt meets Attean, a boy in the Beaver clan, he begins to better understand their way of life and their growing problem in adapting to the changing frontier.
