Thank you for being such a source of enthusiasm and positivity for our students.

We are so lucky to have you on our team!

Not only do you do everything in the office with timeliness and dedication, but you do it with a smile and a positive attitude. When families enter our front office, they feel welcomed and supported. Thank you for being the first faces that our families see...and love!

Thank you for pushing through this last week and a half of school. I know that you are all tired and ready for summer, but you are showing up every day, ready to do everything you can to support our amazing students.

From: Marnie

To: Mario, Juan, and Hugo

There are so many times when the three of you show up and support our families and students, and this past week was just one of myriad examples of this. You care so deeply about our students and our families, and that is evident in everything that you do. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

From: Marnie

To: Rachelle

Thank you for being so proactive when it comes to supporting your students with restoring harm and communicating with parents. When something happens with one of your students, you immediately get to the bottom of it and come up with a solution. You are collaborative and open to support, and you also take responsibility for helping your students grow and learn. We all could learn a lot from you.

From: Marnie

To: Kathy and Jezabel

Thank you for handling a tough situation on Friday. Your commitment to supporting every single one of your students is evident in the actions you took on Friday, and I so appreciate how calm you both were in the face of a crisis.

From: Marnie

To: Anthony

Thank you for working so hard with our students to both expose them to music - an incredible gift - and to prepare them for their Spring Concerts! I can't wait to see our students in action this week :)
