Making small improvements


Remember, allow yourself the kindness to embrace imperfection. Don't let the pursuit of perfection hinder your progress. It's through small, continuous improvements that we all advance. Just one step can set the momentum in motion.

LAC - Nov. 8 & 9

Please mark your calendar for the 37th Annual Regional Language Arts Conference on November 8 & 9, 2024.  The theme, "Tulos Mo'na:  Persevering and Engaging through Literacy" is truly meaningful!  It emphasizes the power of reading and writing as tools for personal and intellectual growth. It highlights the idea that persistence in developing literacy skills can open doors to new opportunities, enhance critical thinking, and foster a deeper connection with the world. This theme also speaks to the importance of actively participating in literary activities, whether it be reading books, writing stories, or discussing ideas, as a means of building resilience and staying intellectually engaged. In essence, it underscores the transformative role of literacy in overcoming challenges and enriching one's life.

Happy Mother's Day! ❤️🌺


Nana
Nana….
If I haven’t told you already
“I love you so”
And always will

You have sacrificed
You have brought so much nurturing into my life
That I can’t imagine my life without you.
Even if my actions tell a different story.

So though I don’t say it all the time
Just know that I do appreciate you
For all that you have done for me
That I love you too
And I always will…
I love you mom!
Hu guaiya hao!
