Good Day,
Once again, the holiday season is upon us. This is a time to reflect on family, special people and friends whom you are grateful to have in your life. We are so appreciative for your help, your generosity, and the support you have provided for our school. The experience of working with outstanding families is always refreshing and stimulating and never more so than this year. The best moments during the last few weeks have come from the importance of giving to others. We have watched and participated, along with the students, in preparing, and sharing gifts for others. It has been amazing. It is the time of year for rejoicing and for rededication.
May the holidays be a time of peace and relaxation for you, your family, and friends. Our hope is that this is a period to reflect on your blessings and for us all to recharge our spirits. The staff, and the administration wish you every blessing of the season.
With much gratitude,
Trich, Erik and Katheryn

The spring season will begin in March and is 10 weeks long, with two 90-minute practices per week.
