Dear Parents, If you have been following the news lately, you may have noticed that division and mistrust of others, particularly those of different cultural backgrounds, has taken center stage in our society. While the rhetoric is that we are “evolving” as a society and more aware of our differences, the sad reality is that…

Dear Parents, As I sit down to write this message, there is a sense of uncertainty in the air, which has sadly become commonplace every time a major holiday is upon us. In many ways, it seems the cares of this world are on overdrive to pull us away from the essence of why and…

Dear Parents, The official arrival of Spring has certainly been a blessing to our school. We can observe this through the excitement of our students playing outside and the daily discoveries they are making, as they turn their attention to creation’s signs of rebirth with sprouts and buds emerging from their dormancy.
