Head's Note

A big thank you to the Parents Association (PA) for sponsoring such a delightful Family Picnic over the weekend! This tradition is one of the most enjoyable of the year, and we are so grateful to everyone who made the gathering so memorable.

As we connect with old friends and make new ones at Crossroads, I am grateful for everything the PA does to strengthen the fibers

of our community. In the year ahead, the PA has scheduled many other great events ranging from our annual Trunk-or-Treat (Family Fall Festival) event next month to Family Arts Night in the second half of the school year. At each of these events, we look forward to sharing experiences and discovering more of the qualities that bring us all together. The connections we share help to make Crossroads the special place that it is!
