Winter Break Message from the Director

Dear Dragon Nation,

As we approach the winter break, I wanted to express my gratitude to all of you for your continued support of our learning community.  Maggie Walker is a very special place and I feel so blessed to be a part of it.  Building on our past successes, I am confident that we will continue to work together to take this learning community to new heights. 

This time of year is a good time to reflect upon our lives and to take stock of what we have.  I think that when we take a good look around, we will find that we have so much for which to be thankful.  It is easy to lose sight of the good when all one sees on the news is bad, but our kids are going to have a huge impact on the future, and that is worth celebrating!

I hope you and your family enjoy a restful winter break and a very happy New Year.

Sincerely,

Robert Lowerre, Director
