We have officially finished three-fourths of the school year! When we return from Spring Break we will be in the final quarter. As I visit the classrooms I see how much the children have grown! Have you noticed the change? It happens so gradually.

We have been partnering together with you nurturing your child as they grow academically, socially, emotionally, physically, and most importantly spiritually over these past months. Your child's teacher is excited to have the opportunity to once again share some time with you during parent-teacher conferences to discuss your child's successes and areas that still need a little growth. Sign-ups are now available on SchoolCues. As always, I am also available to discuss any concerns that you may have.

Have a great Spring Break!

God's blessings,

Linda Dehn

IMPORTANT NOTE - 1st- 8th Grade PARENTS!!!

Those who pick up children at 11:30 a.m. will now pick up at Door A- which is the main entrance. We will bring your child to the door at 11:30 a.m.
