Mil-wigs Update…

As we reflect on the week past we do so with a profound sense of empathy for the innocent victims and families who were attacked in Paris on Friday night.  Such acts strike to the common core of the civilized world and remind us that education has the power to enlighten or to subjugate.

The week of November 9-13 saw the Dragons host more than 1500 folks during three evening Information Forums.  A huge thank you goes out to our team who presented information to large and small groups alike with poise and confidence.  We are truly fortunate to have students, staff, and parents who are willing and able to present information representing a deep and thorough programmatic understanding at such important events.  Kudos are also in order for our PTSA who tirelessly supported receptions each evening!

A Dragon baseball player signed a national letter of intent to attend William and Mary on a baseball scholarship on Thursday…and our boys and girls cross country teams both won state championships for the third consecutive year on Saturday (please accept my apology as I do not have a picture to share)!

Looking ahead to the week of November 16, information that may be of interest to parents include…
