Dear Families,
Happy summer! Several weeks of enjoyable summer remain, but August always signals that emotional shift to begin preparing for the return to school. It is hard to believe that this time last year I was writing you a summer letter outlining upcoming projects and encouraging you to attend the fall town meeting to vote your thoughts on these projects. Now, with just weeks until the start of the school year, those projects are quickly coming to fruition. Construction projects for school facilities are always exceptionally challenging because of the short time span when students are not in session, combined with the very limited options for alternative ways to maintain daily school programming when buildings are being worked on. As expected, we are on very tight timelines for all of our projects to be completed and to begin school, but we remain on target to welcome all students on Wednesday, August 29th.
