Helping Hands

In the days following the destruction of Hurricane Irene, we saw something beautiful happen within our community:  Many folks lent a hand to neighbors and friends to help them clean up and get back in business after the flood.  Students reflected on ways that they had helped their community recover and how they can "lend a hand" whenever it is needed.  We used markers and colored pencils to create hands that express each student's individuality and creativity.  

Welcome Back!

It is so good to be back at school!  Despite our delayed start due to Hurricane Irene, our school is finally filled with smiling children and eager teachers.  Personally, I feel like I have an awful lot to be thankful for as this school year begins.  I am excited to be returning to school after spending five wonderful months with my son Willis.  Thank you to everyone who has made my first day away easier by asking about him.  He is a wonderful, healthy, happy baby!
