Regardless of your beliefs, as we move into the holiday season it is nice to reflect back on our year to date both professionally and personally.
Our students have spent the year learning academically and performing good deeds for others. They have learned about Rachel's Challenge and FISH! principles. They have written cards to our troops, collected sundries for families in need, presented the Southlake Fire and Police with snacks and treats, and honored our veteran's at a wonderful ceremony. All under the direction of a caring group of teachers. I am proud of our teachers and our students.
I am also very proud of Katie Terry. The Terry Thanksgiving was in San Antonio, Texas as we celebrated the graduation of Katie from Air Force Training Camp. As many of you know, she broke her ankle the third week of training and has been at Lackland AFB for seven months. After much prayer and perseverance, Katie graduated and is now at the Presidio of Monterey in language school. She is learning Arabic and is excited about the future.
Karen and I are thankful for great friends, parents, and students. We are especially grateful for our own kids Katie, Reed and Laura, and our faith.
