In Appreciation of our School Bus Drivers…
School bus drivers are essential to a school’s success. Whether it is battling road conditions, ensuring students get to and from school safely, or creating positive relationships with students and their families, bus drivers do it all! Bus drivers are the first and last members of our staff who see our students each day. They build relationships with students and provide them with guidance. They get up early every morning no matter the weather or challenges they face and are ready to serve our students and community. We are very fortunate to have a group of bus drivers who are kind, compassionate, and are dedicated to our students.
Why We Need Veteran Teachers
When I was a student-teacher, I had no idea how hard it can be to quiet a room of 30 students. I’ll never forget the first time my mentoring teacher let me teach the class for the first time. I was feeling confident and ready to finally show my teaching acumen. I mean, I did just go through two years of the teaching program in college, how hard could it be?
The Lord’s Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name;thy kingdom come; thy will be done;on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power and the glory, for ever and ever.
THE POWER OF PRAYER
Prayers for healing and a cure for 8-year-old Landyn Willcut suffering with a brain tumor. – Peggy Reed Let us pray for all the recent widows and widowers in our midst as they grapple with the harsh reality of loss and pray they gain a sense of peace as they begin to face the future.
