Welcome to the FamilyYour child’s

Home Away from Home

We seek your patience, understanding and cooperation

especially during the first two weeks of school.

work together to give them the most caring and secure

environment to enjoy learning.

Closing Address by Principal --

If I had my child to raise all over again,I'd build self-esteem first, and the house

later.I'd finger-paint more, and point the finger

less.I would do less correcting and more

connecting.I'd take my eyes off my watch, and watch

with my eyes.I'd take more hikes and fly more kites.I'd stop playing serious, and seriously

play.I would run through more fields and gaze

at more stars.I'd do more hugging and less tugging.

-- Diane Loomans
