Dear colleagues,
Happy Holiday Season and welcome to the last week before the winter break! Again, we would like to thank you all for the tremendous work on the report cards. We acknowledge and appreciate your flexibility and patience when working with the new report card. It has been great to read all the comments, strengths and next steps of your wonderful students. We are excited to see how the parents and students will receive them. It is very fortunate to have motivated and happy children in our classes every day, and they are very lucky to have such a committed and professional faculty as their learning partners.
This week will present some class parties and festive thoughts and emotions. Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, Yule, New Year, Saint Nicholas Day, St. Lucia, Boxing Day, Kwanzaa, Omisoka, etc., it doesn’t really matter. The holiday spirit is what counts, so let’s keep it up this week.
Also, we will join the Town Hall meeting with the whole faculty and finish the week with the wonderful finale, our holiday assembly in the Black Box Theater. Parents are welcome, but please remind them that there will be no space for seating. They have to observe and enjoy the assembly in the doorway. On Friday, school finishes at 11:30 for students, teachers, and assistants.
Enjoy the week!
Kim, Trevor, and Heikki
