AND THEY’RE OFF…!!  Wow, what a great start this school year is off to.  That directly relates to the type of students we have in this community which, in turn, reflects the terrific parental support they receive at home!  Thank you for being involved and supportive while we have your child for half of each and every day!  What a tremendous responsibility we share in the goal to have each student achieve to his or her potential.  Continue to ask your child about what they did in school each day and don’t settle for the “awe, nothing” answer.  Press them to communicate with you and share their experiences from the day.  When they tell you about their day they are actually reinforcing their own knowledge base.  We have a wonderful teaching staff and, mixed with a great group of parents, equals a solid, values-based community in which we can all take pride.  Once again, thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Mr. Gilbreath
