Parent-Teacher Conferences are coming! I would like to invite all of you in to see me. I would either like to visit with you about how your child is doing or demonstrate a lesson like your child does daily. Please feel free to contact me at the school.

If we all do one random act of kindness daily, we just might set the world in the right direction. --Martin Kornfeld
