“The challenge these days, is to be somewhere, to belong to some particular place, invest oneself in it, draw strength and courage from it, to dwell in a community.” – Bell Hooks

The sunshine this week brought a much needed rejuvenation of both spirit and energy.  There is a familiarity with the changing season that brings comfort with its predictability.  At the same time, we know that there is a feeling of sadness and uncertainty as we all search for a sense of closure with this school year.  Teachers and staff are working on how we can most meaningfully end this school year in a way that honors the connectedness of our classroom communities.  Celebrations and connections will be the focus of our last two weeks of school and you can expect more details from your child’s teacher soon.
