Without your planning and complete commitment, this year would have been without all of the new clubs, without all of the new Odyssey of the Mind teams, without people’s jobs. You are the hub for everything in the school. I firmly believe this school will fall back into the disarray of years past and I honestly do not want my child to feel the consequences of the board’s and principal’s actions. I love you and believe in you. John

We all spent hard earned money to watch an overpriced movie while eating overpriced popcorn and drinking overpriced soda so that we can watch an entirely too long and slow movie. So, the next time you want to have a conversation, go
