  • It's Spring 2024

    Dear Members,

    We have made it through the first two trimesters of school and are winding down, but also revving up. What I mean is as the 23-24 school year will soon be over we are completing screenings and any other mandatory work. We also are starting to prepare for the 24-25 school year with preschool and kindergarten registrations basically here. 

    Take the time during your spring break to rest and rejuvenate before "hitting the pavement" again. 

    In order for us to be on our A-game at work, we cannot overlook the need to take care of ourselves. Stop and take a look at the beauty of nature all around us, focus on family, and most of all self.
