It takes a lot of hard work, both in and outside of the classroom, to move a school one letter grade. Especially, going from average to above average. Ms. Roper and the staff have been working toward this achievement for a while, and it shows. I want you all to feel proud of yourselves. This has not been an easy task. This is a time for you to stand tall, pat yourselves on the back, and add a little "swag" to your step. I am overjoyed to be a part of such a great group of educators. We will celebrate upon your return.

Respectfully,
