I just want to wish everyone at Family School happy holidays. I think of you all often, and about how much you helped my family in the time that my two daughters were students there.
Last year I attended the wonderful holiday concert, in which my daughter danced with a smile on her face. It was an uplifting day and my photos that captured the moment show my daughter in one of the happiest moments of my life.
Wishing everyone peace and joy, and we hope to be back soon to visit.
