Within a few days we will close the first semester of the 2014-2015 school year. Some amazing memories have been made over the past few months and will remain with us forever. A new set of challenges and opportunities will present themselves when we return from our holiday break. I encourage all of us to greet the new year and the new semester with excitement and confidence.
I am very proud of our students for their accomplishments in 2014. It is a great privilege to actually witness so much of their success. I am also very excited about the opportunities that exist for our students and our school in 2015. The school has some grand plans for our main campus and these will be revealed to you early in the new year.
As I take a moment to reflect on holiday seasons past, I can see two young fellows scampering around in footed pajamas, excited about the packages under our Christmas tree. For that moment in time the happenings outside the walls of our home were of little interest or consequence. Since these two young fellows are now in their thirties, the glistening in my eyes is the treasuring of that moment. I can’t keep the smile off my face as I type this memory for you. I strongly encourage you to enjoy the little things as they will become your treasures. If you make resolutions for the new year, please join me in making a resolution to have a positive impact on the life of at least one child in 2015.
Have a restful, invigorating, joyous, reflective, encouraging, fabulous, and wonderful holiday season!
