Dear St. George Families,
Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks and reap the harvest. One of the most plentiful gifts any of us have is the gift of family. As we gather with our families and friends this Thanksgiving, let's ask God's blessings on us that we may keep our lives in perspective and take the time for the things that really matter. Our children are only children once. Let's not miss the opportunity to make a difference in their lives. I am very grateful for all the families, faculty, staff and friends at St. George School.
Have a blessed Thanksgiving!
