Evergreen Weekly for October 9th
Dear Evergreen Families,
During the Thanksgiving season, when we traditionally take time to give thanks, we wanted to express our personal gratitude.
Thank you to you, our families, for having faith in Evergreen School and for entrusting us with your children. Your children come with strong values, respect, inclusivity, and appreciation. Thank you for your commitment to ensuring our collective success.
Thank you to our AMAZING School Council and Parent Society who made out teachers feel so special this World Teacher’s Day with very generous gift cards to Amazon to be able to purchase supplies for their classrooms. Tears of appreciation flowed! Thanks also to our Evergreen staff for their commitment to the students and families of Evergreen School every day.
Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving.
