Dear FMSL community,
Brandi and I are delighted to welcome you to the 2022-23 academic year. We want to extend our gratitude to our community for the many ways you have helped us prepare for this new school year:
Students- thank you for bringing joy, curiosity and exuberance to our school life. You are a constant encouragement to us to be our best selves and be fully present in each precious moment of the day.
Parents- thank you for your support, encouragement, and honesty. Your focus on addressing the pressing needs within our community as well as looking ahead to the future is so very necessary.
Teachers and staff- thank you for the care and attention you have put into making FMSL a warm, beautiful, and safe space for all. We are so very appreciative of your dedication to our community
Each year our staff has a theme that helps provide focus for our individual effort and our collaborative work. This year’s theme is Breathe. Taking time for restful breathing and deliberate breath can help us maintain the calm needed for clear thinking. It provides us a way to manage situations that may be stressful, people who are anxious, or things that may be challenging.
A new year brings new opportunities and we are feeling optimistic about the future. Please don’t hesitate to reach out should you have questions.
With gratitude,
Brandi & Margaret
