Thursday October 17
Note from the Principal 10/17/19
The weatherperson was absolutely correct! Thursday, October 10th turned into a glorious autumn day for our school Marathon! Our prayer service, led by our 6th graders was just perfect. We cheered and danced and prayed together as a community right out on the basketball court. Thanks again to Christina Wesley Thrall, Sheila Campolieto, Karen Benacci, and the many parents who volunteered to make this event a huge success. A special thank you to Karen Williams for acting as our DJ! Thanks to all; whether you sent in snacks, stood on a corner, dressed as dinosaurs or walked with our kids. We are grateful for every one of you! Children have received their casual dress passes for selling sponsorship. Thank you children!
Thank you also for continuing to be the most generous people I know! If you haven’t had a chance to send their pledges back in, please do so as soon as possible. Hopefully, we will have a final total next newsletter!
