Good Evening Bulldog Families–
Happy Mother’s Day! I hope that you and your family were able to enjoy a fantastic weekend and celebrate the moms in your family.
Speaking of celebrations, this past week was Teacher Appreciation Week. We had a great time celebrating the amazing work of our teachers and staff members. It is important to remember that one week does not even begin to approach the amount of recognition an appreciation that these hard working, dedicated individuals deserve. Throughout the year, our instructional staff work tirelessly to support our students. We are truly grateful!
This week will mark 4 weeks until graduation. This time of the year moves quickly and can also get frantic and stressful for your students. Please encourage them to stay on top of their responsibilities and plan out their end of the year. The last thing we want is for students to have been working hard all year only to trip up at the end. We’re looking forward to a strong finish!
As always, please feel free to reach out to me with observations, suggestions, questions and celebrations. You can do that through e-mail, call, or through the form located here: https://forms.gle/4eW9rgPRVBF2a5gd8.
Go Bulldogs!
