 WEEK AT A GLANCE

           Happy New Year!!!

Dear Colleagues:
Happy New Year!!!  Some have declared it to be the start of a new decade while others have been resolute that it is the final year of the decade and 2021 will be the actual start of the new decade. Parking meters in NYC have become disagreeable with a kind of Y2K glitch causing them to refuse credit cards. Regardless of where we stand on the issue of the new decade, we can all agree it is a New Year and tomorrow we return to Greenacres, our home away from home. We will resume our calling, as though we never left, to educate the children who walk across the thresholds of our classrooms each day. While the time away has been refreshing and agreeable to our inner beings in so many ways, I know there is a part of each of us that looks forward to the reentry that will take place tomorrow morning. This note comes to say, Welcome Back! I look forward to seeing each of you. Here’s to a Happy New Year. May Health, Happiness and Peace be ours through the year and always.
Best to you!

 Sharon

 

ANNOUNCEMENTS

Representatives from Grades K-5 will be visiting the Pocantico Hills Elementary School to take a look at some of the furniture they have been using. If you are among the representatives, please be sure to submit your lunch order to Resa by tomorrow so that we may follow up with our planned lunch meeting.

In case you hadn’t noticed, just before we left for the break on December 20th, a small trailer was placed on the school grounds at Sage Terrace. The trailer is being used to store equipment and materials for insulating various areas in the building as part of the construction project. The trailer is expected to be moved from Sage Terrace and will be relocated on school grounds on Putnam Road. We expect the equipment will remain on the school grounds from 4 to 6 weeks, more or less. In the meantime, we appreciate your understanding.  Students should be dismissed away from the trailer.  Sharon and I will work with you to accommodate for any minor tweaks that may be necessary for our arrival and dismissal process.
