Love Lifts You!

Good Sunday Morning Students and Staff,

In honor of one of my favorites, Kenny Rogers, who passed away this past week at age 81 of natural causes, I figured I'd share a little bit of his (and Dolly's) wisdom! 


Those outfits really were cool in the '70s, can you believe it!  That song was released in 1976 which was the year I was born!  If you are looking to explore some old (country) music while stuck inside today on this rainy day, check out some of Kenny Rogers's greatest hits.  I promise you won't be disappointed!  😉

We love all of you, and we're making plans to show you just how much!  Stay tuned for more info to come!  






I also wanted to post a couple more Spirit Week photos.  Ms. Huff out and about on Nature day, and Britta's Family Day selfie in front of Crossett Brook, because, "we are all her family," and Mrs. Hudak and her crew enjoying the outdoors as a family on Friday.  




Thanks to everyone who shared pictures for all to enjoy.  If you have a picture of something you've been doing to pass the time at home, feel free to email it to me and I'll share it to the blog.  Remember that love lifts us all, so keep spreading it!  

Be Well,

Mrs. Hempey

Lived Experience

Good Morning Everyone, Today I'd like to continue addressing social justice and antiracism from my blog. What is antiracism you ask? Well, let me explain what I have come to understand.  Antiracism is when we actively take a stance against racial injustice.  It is fighting for equality.  It is going beyond just thoughts and feelings and taking action.  That action can come in many forms.  It can be in the form of educating your self or others, peaceful protest, monetary support for organizations like Black Lives Matter or the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), or it can be about simply lending your voice to someone in need.   Some people would argue that topics such as these are wading into the water of politics and taking sides and that we shouldn't be talking about them in school or with young kids.  My response is that I don't care what political side people are on.  This is a human rights issue!  It's...
