I know this is a lot of information but it is a very busy time of year, so I feel better about letting you know what's going on with as much advance notice as I can; although, sometimes things change, but at least you have an idea of what is planned.
If you're still reading, thank you. Thank you for attending your child's conferences. Thank you for supporting us and your children. And thank you for letting me know that the blog is helpful.
Enjoy your weekend,
Ms. Susan
