Two months ago today, it was Friday, March 13th. The week had begun with the time change, and a full moon, and that day held all the usual weirdness of life in a middle school. When we left the building that day, we knew things were going to change, but boy, I don't think any of us realized how much! We miss you, and we appreciate all you are doing--all of you: parents, students, teachers, families, and the community in general. We'll finish this the best we can and look forward to being together again.
We have NO May 13th birthdays, but wish a very happy belated birthday to Ms. Prorok--our "rock" through all of this uncertainty! Thank you for everything!
