Thank you to all the families that so generously contributed to our Giving Tree.

I feel privileged and honored to be able to work in this caring and supportive community.  As the holidays approach, I want to send a message of great joy and appreciation to the entire Stonehedge community.  This has been a wonderful and exciting year.  Our students have worked hard in their classes and enjoyed the many activities we have been able to offer. Our teachers are dedicated to their students and are taking on many new and exciting methods with which to engage and challenge them. The support from our PTA and dedicated parent volunteers has never been stronger.  We are thankful to our BOE and district level administration for leading us through some of the toughest times in public education and keeping the focus on our students’ well being and learning.  With school out and our routines disrupted for the next two weeks, we may get that stressful feeling that there is too much to do with not enough time to do it all. It may help to remind ourselves what the writer Donald E. Westlake once said, “As we struggle with shopping lists and invitations, compounded by December’s bad weather, it is good to be reminded that there are people in our lives who are worth this aggravation, and people to whom we are worth the same.”

Happy Holidays!
