Monday Memo Musings

Welcome December. Welcome back to many of our staff. You have been missed.

Often we are tending to the traumas of our students, this month it seems, its our turn to tend to our own traumas. The list is very long for our staff right now, so as we would kids, we wrap around each other and make sure you know school is a calm place, we care about you and wished we could take a pain away by snapping our fingers. Some of us will pray for you, some of us will have you in our thoughts often and some of us will  listen but all of us are here for you.

Shane and ...
