Principal Doug joined the Marin Headlands trip on Tuesday and here’s what he wrote to all of the parents when he returned:
I was so incredibly moved by how much your children are all enjoying their time together. They are having fun, making new friends, taking risks, and truly enjoying themselves. Also, I have said it before: Our amazing chaperones who are treating your children like their own this week: Mr. Sleep; Mr. Pierce; Morah Danielle and Morah Sharon. I am grateful for the sacrifices they are making this week to give this opportunity to your students.
