Head of School Review

CONTINUED

This week we had our Board of Directors committee meetings and had some excellent generative discussions about the future of our school and the changes expected in the area with Blue Oval opening soon. During this meeting, it occurred to me that we are so lucky to have this group of talented individuals working together on behalf of our school. Under the guidance of Board Chair Harry SInis, this board is composed of Rose Fullen, Johnny James, Jason Butler, Stacy Fullen, Neil Howe, Wade Cox, Chris Slayman, and Elizabeth Lague. I have had the opportunity to work with some talented boards throughout the years, but none are more engaged and thoughtful than this group. They do this board work without compensation and give so freely of their time to make the school better for their children and yours, so please thank them for their efforts when you see them next.

Lastly, we have been working diligently to make some upgrades on campus. One area that you may have noticed is we have installed new LED lighting in the multipurpose room. This not only brightens up that area but should also save us some money on our energy bill. As well, we have installed new lighting throughout the campus and have also installed new digital thermostats. Two more upgrades that we are working on are a new campus Wifi network which will be installed shortly This state of the art upgrade should meet our campus technology needs for many years to come.

We are also planning upgrades to our playground, and you may have heard your students talking about our new Gaga ball pit in the upper elementary playground. We have several other new things that I will share in the days to come. We are so thankful for the donations from parents and charitable foundations that have paid for these tremendous upgrades.
