On Tuesday, it was wonderful to host Philip Gray, a veteran who served as a bomber pilot in WWII. The grade 4-6 students listened intently as he shared his memories with us. Mr. Gray also wrote a book called, "Ghosts of Targets Past". If you are a history buff, you can get the book at the library. I haven't had a chance to see if you can get the book at a book store or on-line, but I'm sure we can. It looks like a good read.
Thank you for attending the parent/teacher interviews over the last couple of weeks. It was a great opportunity to see you in the school to discuss your child's progress. The intermediates interviewed in teams that took more time than usual, and we will work out those glitches for next time. It was nice to talk to those middle school parents as they waited. Lots of conversations with the grade 8 parents as they plan for high school next year.
We would like to congratulate Mrs. Zappi and her family as they recently adopted their new baby girl. Mrs. Zappi will be on a leave for the remainder of the year. We are in the process of interviewing for a new teacher. We welcome Ms. Sunde for the short term.
