Greetings,
Welcome to the last nine weeks of a fabulous year! There have been many "firsts" this year in the city school system for our children, and there will be more to come. A new principal, new teachers, new friends, new activities, first ball games, first victories, first defeats, new uniforms, new plans for buildings--the list is endless and everyone in the system has worked extremely hard to make things fun and meaningful for the students. Change is good for everyone, but one thing never changes: HIGH EXPECTATIONS for each student. We truly believe that every student can be successful in a caring, nurturing environment.
It is very important to recognize any problem that a child may have that inhibits the learning process, so please let the guidance department or the school's administration know if anything happens at school that is of significance. We are there to assist and stand ready to take care of our students.
If you missed the open house at the high school, you can still visit the guidance office and catch up on all the news! We continue to add new and exciting academic courses, so it changes as the interests of our students emerge. They will also explain extracurricular activities, clubs, organizations, partnership with Motlow Community College, and sports in which students may wish to become involved.
You may find a copy of a brochure on the high school website which outlines many of the course offerings and activities. Any student from another school is welcome to come and visit, ask questions, and meet the administrators and teachers so that parents and students can make an informed choice.
We are working daily to help children to believe in themselves and, not only to have dreams, but honor their dreams by putting one foot in front of the other--one academic and personal success at a time--so they can make a difference in the world.
Please come and check us out. We are excited about the rest of this year and looking forward to 2012-13! Many thanks to the parents and families who have supported us throughout this year.
Respectfully,
Dr. Janine Wilson
Director of Schools
