PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
As we reach our final day of school before winter recess, I want to take a moment to wish all of our students and families a safe, restful, and enjoyable break. This time away from school, which includes Presidents’ Day, provides a valuable opportunity to recharge, reflect, and prepare for the important work ahead during the second half of winter.
While we hope this recess offers time for rest and relaxation, I also encourage our students to remain active and engaged. Take advantage of the winter season by getting outside, staying physically active, and spending quality time with family and friends. Maintaining healthy routines helps both our minds and bodies stay strong.
This break can also be a great time to review and strengthen academic skills. Whether it’s reading a good book, practicing math facts, working on assignments, or exploring a personal interest, small efforts during the recess can make a meaningful difference as we continue our learning journey.
Most importantly, take this time to recharge. The weeks ahead will bring continued opportunities for growth, achievement, and success, and returning refreshed and ready to learn will help us finish the winter season strong.
We look forward to welcoming everyone back rested, energized, healthy and prepared for the months ahead. Have a safe and wonderful winter recess.
