T.H.E. Trail Guide

As we close another successful school year, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone for making it a memorable and productive time for our school and community. This year has been filled with incredible learning opportunities, personal growth, and numerous achievements that we are extremely proud of.

Our students have shown remarkable dedication and enthusiasm in their learning and extracurricular activities. From academic successes to artistic performances (Talent Show, Grinch, Beauty and the Beast, etc) and athletic accomplishments, the progress and achievements of our students have been truly inspiring. We are so thankful for the continuous support and involvement of our parents, guardians, and families whose partnership is invaluable to our students’ success.

To our dedicated teachers and staff, your unwavering commitment to fostering a positive and enriching learning environment has been the cornerstone of our students’ growth and success. Your passion for education and genuine care for our students’ well-being have made this year exceptional.

As we look forward to the summer break, we hope everyone enjoys a well-deserved rest. We encourage our students to stay safe, have fun, and continue learning in new and exciting ways over the summer months. Whether it’s through reading, exploring nature, or spending quality time with family and friends, there are countless opportunities for growth and discovery outside the classroom.

Thank you once again for a fantastic year. We are excited about the future and look forward to welcoming everyone back in the fall for another year of learning, growth, and achievement.

Have a wonderful and safe summer!

Jennifer Knight and Angela Kelly
