A MESSAGE FROM
Principal Santos
This week is Teacher Appreciation week! When teachers enter this Trailblazer world, they become a part of a powerful force of unstoppable changemakers. In this family, our strength comes from our ability to lift each other up and help each other shine. Sometimes this support may look like empathy and celebration. Other times, it may look like honest feedback, clarity and constructive encouragement to push our colleagues to grow into who they were meant to be. Our staff's dedication and commitment to our students' success are commendable, and we are fortunate to have such talented and passionate educators who truly create the energy and joy of our school community. We owe them a debt of gratitude for their hard work, creativity, and flexibility!
Thank you to all those who have helped us celebrate our teachers! I encourage everyone to join me expressing your gratitude for their invaluable contributions to our school and our children's lives.
BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

LEMONADE DAY
Our next Lemonade Day event will be on May 12th!
Lemonade Day is just ONE of the amazing programs our girls can participate in thanks to what they earn through Girl Scout cookie sales. Through their cookie profits, we are able to purchase supplies for each classroom for Lemonade Day. Every year, each class determines their budget and makes a list of the supplies to purchase: cups, straws, fruit, sugar, water, ice, fancy umbrellas, secret ingredient and supplies to make their stand pop and create the most tasty lemonade treat!
Every year we celebrate Lemonade Day and honor our late co-founder by participating in her favorite STEAM project. Ms. Turner loved this project because of how it brought ALL of the components of STEAM together. And it doesn't stop there, each year our Brownie troops participate in the Journey Brownie Quest, where they learn about what it means to give back. Our proceeds will go to the charity of our Brownie Troops choice!
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
3rd-5th Lemonade Day: Sign-up on Voly!
In honor of Ms. Turner, scholars may wear yellow on Friday with their uniform bottoms. #LiveHerLegacy
