We had a great first day! Our Marksmen showed up ready for the year with a positive attitude and we are here for it! There is nothing like the first day of school and this was one for the memory books.
Yesterday, our staff spent time getting ready for today by focusing on our team. We played games and learned about some strategies of effective teams and how we can be a more unified team. We do this so we are more able to be the teacher YOUR child deserves!
Today's the big day and it's going to be a great start to a brand new year! We look forward to seeing all of our students filling the halls with laughter. Share those first day of school photos so all our Marksmen can cover the students in prayers of thanksgiving!
