Happy Holidays

Español

The adage is true—the older you get, the faster time goes by. It seems like 2016 just began, and yet here we are on the brink of 2017. I hope it has been a great year for you, one to build on starting Jan. 1.

For me, as well as many others, this holiday season will feel a little different. When we look around the table at our friends and family, someone might be missing who was there in 2015. I think it is so important to treasure this time that we have with our loved ones. Nothing is promised; we should enjoy our blessings while we have them.

I am always encouraged this time of year by the uplifting stories of our schools giving to fellow schools or those in the community who need a helping hand. Let us all remember those less fortunate than us, and help bring a little holiday cheer to the lives of those who have not been as blessed as we have.

On behalf of my administrative team, I wish you a happy holiday season.
