Greetings and Happy February!

 

Our Ultimate Frisbee Knights celebrated their first win of the season in a game versus Carolina Friends!  Kudos to Coach Scott and the players!

 

Congrats to the following seniors on their recent college acceptances:

-         Malia Perera - James Madison University and East Carolina University

-         Ben Courts - University of North Florida

 

 

BEHIND THE SCENES:

On Friday we took our annual Staff Photo.  We were thrilled to find a way to include Jill - each of us had a token of Jill adorning us in some manner.  We know this will appeal to her puzzle-searching personality and we were very glad to come up with this special tribute.  Jill may be transferring from the hospital to a rehab facility or home very soon.  She will then have daily trips for radiation and other treatments. Jill’s husband has read her every card we’ve sent and he reports that she is able to tell him a bit about each sender. She has continued to make some gains this week in both speaking and right side mobility.  As always, she is a hard worker and inspires us! When we shared the story of her first steps in an Upper School Morning Meeting the room erupted in applause.
