Dear Parent, Greetings ! As we approach the end of another busy year I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the support you have given both to your child and to the school. Thank everyone enough for your endless hours of volunteering, chaperoning, reading, organizing, donating and doing whatever was necessary to support students both at home and at school. Special thanks to our Parent Teacher Association who, as usual, went above and beyond the call of duty to provide whatever was necessary to add for our students’ rich school experience. I look for- ward to welcoming all students refreshed and ready for the challenges of the year ahead back to school. Let us gear ourselves up for a new beginning while drawing a curtain on the Academic Year 2019-2020. Warm Regards 21
