Week of April 6, 2025

Hello Alder Families,

As we reach the end of the marking period, we want to take a moment to reflect on the growth and progress our students have made so far. It’s hard to believe how quickly the year is flying by, and we’re so proud of the hard work, determination, and enthusiasm our students continue to show each day.

While academic achievement remains a central focus, we are equally committed to fostering citizenship, collaboration, and a love of learning in all of our students. These values are essential not only for school success but for life beyond the classroom.


Thank you, as always, for your continued support. Together, we can help our students grow into confident, capable, and compassionate individuals.


Sincerely,

Ms. Cunningham
