Dear Students & Parents and Guardians:
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! As we head into the week ahead, I’m reminded of how important it is to take a moment for gratitude. In the rush of school life, it’s easy to focus on what’s next, but pausing to appreciate the people and moments that make our days meaningful truly matters. Gratitude helps us see the good around us—and reminds us how fortunate we are to be part of this school community. What are you grateful for today on this Thanksgiving Monday?
Although this week is a short week for students and staff, it is a busy one.
