I enjoyed meeting with all of you this week. It's wonderful to share the pride we have in our children. They have worked hard and accomplished so much already.
Please remember that we have an academic break on Monday and there is no school! Mrs. Woinarowicz will be back to greet your children on Tuesday, the 29th!
I want to thank Mrs. Zavala and Mrs. Santana for sharing the responsibility of supporting and guiding your children over the last few weeks and months. I feel blessed to work alongside such intelligent and compassionate people!
