Congratulations on Another Successful Year of Joyful Learning
School is out for our TK-12 schools for the summer and I want to congratulate our students, families, staff and community on another successful year of joyful learning. I am constantly inspired and impressed by our creative, determined, brilliant students. Every day, they show incredible resilience, adaptability, and drive as they navigate complex concepts in the classroom, lead extracurricular initiatives, and play sports, some as team captains, all while overcoming personal hurdles. Their achievements are a testament to their hard work, and to the adults in their lives that nurture their development. My hat is off to our young people and to everyone across the District and city who supports them.
