My salvation and my honor depend on God;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.

Psalm 62:7
From the Desk of Dr. Tucker

Dear Parents,

I hope you are enjoying the cooler weather.  We are!  The students have been outside for P. E. and recess today and are enjoying the cool down. 

As other schools have opened to in-person classes this week, I am so thankful we have been here for two weeks working through some of the ‘glitches’ and were able to begin this week with more stability and routine.  I have been able to be in classes and with students, and it is obvious they are enjoying being with their friends and are now getting into their new normal of school. 

We are still working on a few things such as chapel and rainy-day dismissal.  Thank you for your patience as we tweak and make necessary changes.  Hopefully, we will continue to improve in all areas.

I know Meet the Teacher zooms are beginning and will continue next week.  This is an informative time with your child’s teacher that should answer many questions.  I hope you will make plans to attend. 

The following verse has been on my mind lately, and I love Phillip's version:

Romans 12: 2 – Don’t let the world around you squeeze you into its own mold, but let God re-mold your minds from within, so that you may prove in practice that the plan of God for you is good, meets all his demands and moves towards the goal of true maturity.

Blessings,
Traci Tucker

Birthday Treats
Due to COVID we ask that you please adhere to the following guidelines when sending a birthday treat for your child's class. The treat must be individually wrapped by the bakery or restaurant of your choice that you get the food from. For example, individual packages of cookies from the grocery store, cupcakes in separate boxes wrapped from the bakery, donuts wrapped individually and sealed  at the donut shop are all acceptable.

Thank you for your support and understanding.

Medication that needs to be at school for over 3 days must have a doctor's signature on the medication release form.
