Greetings!
Happy Mother's Day to all of the amazing women in our school who are my heroines, inspiration and family. I hope that the day brings you an opportunity to celebrate all the good things that come from your nurturing and loving care.

We welcome Jill Pitino to our office team. Jill will start with us on Monday as Ms. Lynne continues to decrease her hours so that she can devote her time to studying to become a physician's assistant. I know you will join me in welcoming Jill and in showing your appreciation to Lynne for her care and excellent work over the past three years. Personally, I will miss Lynne greatly but I am very happy that she is seizing this opportunity to follow her passion.
We have just completed our last week of clubs. Although Ms. Judith hopes to return this week, she will not run make-up club sessions in order to keep from over-doing things while she continues to recover. Classics Club WILL meet for a make-up session this Monday, May 12, to account for a meeting missed due to a snow day.
We are down to the wire in terms of number of days left in the school year, but there is no shortage of activity yet to fit in! Please read this info carefully so as not to miss any of the important details.
