We Are Grateful
Dear Parents and Families,
As we welcome November, a season rich with gratitude, reflection, and community, I want to take a moment to extend my deepest appreciation to each of you. This month, we focus on giving thanks, and as a school, we are reminded daily of the invaluable role that you, our families, play in the lives of our students and our community.
Your support, involvement, and encouragement make a profound difference in your children’s educational journey. Whether you’re volunteering your time, helping with homework, or cheering on your child’s efforts, you are a key part of their success and growth. We see and appreciate the countless ways you contribute to their lives and to the warmth and vitality of our school.
Throughout this month, we encourage our students to recognize and appreciate those who uplift and inspire them—starting, of course, with you.
Thank you for your partnership, dedication, and trust. We are truly grateful for each of you.
Warmest regards,
Dr. Josh Holtcamp
Principal
