Weekly Memo (May 4-8)

May the Fourth Be With You!


Remember this picture? It seems like it was taken a lifetime ago, but it was just 10 weeks ago. It’s crazy to think about how so much has changed! I miss seeing our kids every day. They’ve done an outstanding job keeping engaged online, but I know it’s been hard for them.

Even though the end of the year won’t wrap up like we had planned, I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at the 5th Grade Graduation Drive-Thru Ceremony.

I’m looking forward to another great week, and if there’s anything I can do to help, please let me know. May The Fourth Be With You today.

Mr. C.
