Dear Families,

Welcome back, and happy new year, Cougars!

I hope you all had an enjoyable time off with your family and friends during your break. The beginning of the new year does come with many assessments in the near future. It is important to take advantage of these moments so we can rejuvenate, refocus, and approach the new year with a renewed sense of purpose.

As we continue to make our way through the winter months, let’s take advantage of this time and make sure our students continue to approach each school day with positive purpose. It’s important to remember that hard work, active learning, and achievement develop the invincible work ethic that our students will continue to use throughout their lives.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership as we work together. I know this is going to be a great second semester!

With kind regards,

Bethany Patterson
