"Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." - 1 Thessalonians 5:18
This week we celebrate our staff. Oftentimes I say teachers generally and by saying that I literally mean every single person in this building from Mr. Geoff our maintenance engineer, Ms. Rose in the kitchen, Ms Diaz our EA, Ms. Lunceford in the office, to Ms Koll, Coach Bodi and every one of the 'teachers' too. When you enter this building as a staff member you become a teacher in one way or another, you touch the student's lives each and every day. I loved the staff in the school I came from, I had a great connection with each of them and they were all fabulous with their students. When I came here I found what was missing, here the staff are not only fabulous for their individual classrooms but they are an integral part of what makes JPIIA the magical place it is. This week is intended to thank our teachers and staff, but what they do each and every day deserves more thanks than I can give them in one week. JPIIA is truly grateful for our staff, we are all blessed to be here with each other every day.
Monday, May 12th from 7:10-8:10 in the School Gym
