Hello Spicewood Families,
As we prepare to wrap up this semester and embark on a well-deserved winter break, I want to take a moment to extend my heartfelt gratitude for your support, dedication, and partnership throughout this school year.
The holiday season is a time for joy, reflection, and connection. I hope you find time to relax, recharge, and create special memories with your loved ones. Whether you are traveling, celebrating traditions, or simply enjoying the quieter moments, may this season bring warmth and happiness to your family.
On behalf of the entire Spicewood Elementary staff, we wish you a safe, joyful holiday season and a bright start to the new year. Thank you for being an essential part of our community. We look forward to seeing you in January!
Have a fantastic winter break!
Sincerely,
Melanie Solis
