Schindler's List - September 2, 2013

Wasn't last weekend BEAUTIFUL? It was so great to spend time with family and friends!  It is wonderful to come back to school rested and ready for this week!  This week we will have our very first First Friday Adoration followed by our celebration of our annual Grandparent's Luncheon!  This week we also have our First Friday PLC.  We will of course begin our time together discussing any issues we need to address as a full staff and then we will begin our focus on the accreditation process as we have our 5 year review in March, 2014.  Anyone interested in serving on an AdvancEd External Review Team?  Please let me know!
