The 3rd graders celebrating their hard work in writing!

I just want to say Thank You!  I appreciate the time you took out of your busy schedules so I could meet and learn more about your child, share what they are doing in school, and work together to make school a success. Your support means so much and I truly love having your children each and every day! May we continue to love, pray for, and challenge these children, so they may grow and desire to be disciples of Christ.
