Fall brings cooler weather, spectacular displays of foliage, and harvest celebrations. Robert Frost wrote a poem for this time of year called "Nothing Gold Can Stay":
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay
Enjoy the beauty of fall as all too soon it shall be winter. As the first quarter of school finishes and we look ahead to Quarter 2, we wish all families a wonderful Fall Break.
There will be no school from October 19 through 23. Please enjoy a week of well-earned rest and relaxation, and remember to stay safe so that we can all come back to school happy and healthy on Monday, October 26.
