Greetings!

I am thinking spring.  All of the snow has caused some back up with our Falcon Flyer.  This is the first edition of student news. There will be additional Falcon Flyers published to catch up on student news that has happened between December and the end of February.  So stay tuned for another edition that will come out next week. Don't forget to visit us on FaceBook to stay up to date.  

 

Enjoy this edition of the Falcon Flyer which has highlighted events for the past few months.  Please be sure to download and review the newly adopted calendar for the rest of this school year.  Many people have contacted me regarding what will happen if we have any additional snow days.  The new calendar explains it.  

 

Have a great weekend.

 

Liz

A Special Thank You from The McCurry Family
Keep Si Si in your thoughts.
This special note was sent to the community from the McCurry Family in January.  This is the first full Falcon Flyer that has gone out since SiSi's benefit.  
The McCurry family thanks, from the bottom of our hearts, all of the family, friends, strangers and the entire community for your continued, extraordinary support, care and love on behalf of SiSi. The tremendous turnout to the Team SiSi Fundraiser on January 11, 2014 inspires our family to continue our mission and SiSi to continue her fight. Every speaker, performer and volunteer did an excellent job and we appreciate you. We see the love as your support and encouragement pours our way and we really felt the love at the Team SiSi Fundraiser. We love you all.
