  • Letter from the Principal: 2020 Plans Due to Covid-19 Restrictions

    Dear Parents, This Friday will be the last class of the first session of our virtual summer camp. Next Monday, we’ll start our second session. This is the first time in 20 years that we only see each other over zoom. We miss seeing all the campers and teachers having fun together indoors and outdoors. We are so encouraged by many campers who live as far away as Seattle, California, Boston, New York, New Jersey, and Texas joining us this year.  I am looking forward to meeting some of the new campers joining us next week, as well as sharing stories with teachers and parents. I just talked to Dr. Harrison […]
