January 23, 2020 MESSAGE FROM PRINCIPAL DIANNE CARTER
Happy Thursday, Wildcat Families!
I'll start this week's reflections with a little reflection on one of my favorite quotes:
Phew...my fingers are tired, and I'm sure you're ready to have dinner or go to bed or something else. I hope you and your Wildcat have a great weekend. Rest...relax...breathe...smile…
Enjoy!
