The end of a school year is both happy and sad. It is happy because we see the progress the students have made and another year of learning has been accomplished by each student. We are sad because we will miss working with the students and parents whom we have build relationships during the school year.
On May 20, our perspective will once again change. We will shift from the daily lessons and school work that have consumed us for the last several months to planning for the next school year. For parents, children who have been at school each day will suddenly be home and summer activities will be the norm. However as time slips by, it won't be long until August 18 is once again upon us.
I want to thank the parents and students for a great school year and wish all of you a great summer. As a parent, I want to remind all parents to enjoy the times that you have with your children. Too quickly they grow up and have a life of their own and you can never go back to repeat the times that you have together at this age. As a parent of an almost 20 year old, I sometimes forget that it really wasn't just yesterday that he was riding the rocking horse with the band-aid on the nose through the house. Time really does go by quickly.
Have a great and safe summer!
