announcements, I want to share with you how PROUD I am of your children. Coming
back to school after a six month hiatus is not easy. Being kindergarteners last
year, your kids were still learning about what it means to be at school and be
a learner. This may not sound important, but it is perhaps the most important
thing they learn in the early grades. That is what Operation First Grade
Bootcamp is about; laying a foundation for learning that will remain with them
for the rest of their schooling years. And, they have worked so hard. They are
giving me their absolute best every day. I am pushing them, knowing that we have
so much work to do this year. They are rising to that challenge!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I appreciate them, and I appreciate you; setting
a tone at home so when they get to school each day, they are ready. It makes
such a difference, and I thank you for that!<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><o:p></o:p></i></span></b></p>
