Falcon Focus
September 8, 2015
Week two is in the books!
It can be overwhelming at times but committing to continued improvement, learning every day, and trying new things are what our students deserve. They are the luckiest group around to have you all as their teachers. You are not satisfied with status quo, how it has always been done, or old school ways. You are persevering and preparing our children for the positive and bright future they deserve by challenging ourselves and being the best we can be every single day!
Thanks so much for putting in the extra effort and the extra hours to make this year a success!!!
