Panther Tales
Welcome back FINALLY! What a bumpy start! Although I was somewhat disappointed when the power came back on a day early, it was a blessing because we quickly realized that something had occurred to our fire alarm system through the loss of power! That gave us Thursday and Friday to repair the damage (15 items!) so that we were able to safely start school on Tuesday. What a relief. God is always watching out for us!
Reminder during drop off, and particularly pick up time, that there is enough space for the busses to come through. The curve seems to be a particularly tough spot. Thanks for helping us out!
Great job parents in the morning! Some parents have come into the building with their children as needed, but are quickly out again, which is appreciated. It is always great when the school day has a strong start! The bus schedule has also been improving each day. We have three buses this year. If you have any questions or concerns about busing, please contact the UCS Transportation Department.
I have enjoyed visiting all the classrooms this week, as I do as often as I possibly can (so much more interesting than my office lol). Today I overheard a teacher say, “You are just the way God created you – YOU are His masterpiece!” She reminded them that even when they make mistakes, God loves them, because they are his masterpiece. I was so glad I was walking through during her lesson!
Finally, let me remind you, parents, that if you need anything, I am just a phone call or email away. I LIKE to hear ideas, even if it is something you wish I would do differently. It helps me think things through.
Blessings!

A CHALLENGE FOR EVERYONE:
adults, high school youth, junior youth, and kids
Following Jesus should be practical and straight forward.
There are hundreds of books and Bible studies on following Jesus, but few are practical and proven. Jesus modeled a whole life and even told us how to follow Him in HIS OWN WORDS (the red letters found in many Bibles). The best way to follow Jesus is simply to follow the words of Jesus. Red Letter Challenge eliminates the fluff and has helped thousands of people grow closer to God in only 40 days.
