Thank you!

As today is our final school day...WE DID IT!  TOGETHER!  It is the togetherness that makes the accomplishment of bringing another school year to a close so meaningful and special.  It takes a strong sense of community and care to raise a child, and we have an incredible team to help make that happen in the very best of ways.

To our families, thank you for your trust, support, and care; throughout not just this year but all of them.  You are your child’s first teacher, their advocate, mentor, and rock.  Without you none of this is possible.

To our teachers, thank you.  It is moments like these where we get to pause, reflect, and recognize the profound nature of our work.  You would be hard pressed to find a more committed and caring group of educators than those who have guided your child(ren) throughout this year.  On behalf of our teacher team, we are honored to play a role in each of your lives.  

To our kids, WOW!  YOU DID IT!  You faced unparalleled hardship with poise, dignity, perseverance, and empathy.  The world today looks vastly different than the one when we first entered this new school building two years ago.  Each day you are building the skills, knowledge, and mindset to continue to transform the world in ways that are equitable, just, and sustainable.  You have a voice, you have agency, you have power - and we look forward to the stories each of you will write with it.

Wishing you a restorative, enjoyable, and healthy summer!  Thank you for all that you do to make East Prairie the very special place it is!
