*This is week 9 of the 4th Quarter . . . The penultimate week of the school year has arrived. A long journey that began August 22 of last year is nearly up! The journey was rocky at times like any meaningful, healthy association but overall the positive experiences far outweigh any minor obstacles along the way! Well young scholars I will be signing off shortly as the time continues to ‘slip’ away . . . so, prospective eighth graders I say this for the last time: always do your best and just enjoy the waning moments of 7th grade and the school year!JJJ
