To Staff and the Twin Rivers School Community,

Throughout the world, people are acting in solidarity to help others deal with the pace, pressures, and pain caused by the coronavirus. We see donations of food and health supplies, gestures of support, and gratitude for public servants and healthcare workers. And we see expressions of hope and resiliency. I personally enjoy seeing the colorful art and inspirational messages that many people, including children, are adding to driveways and sidewalks. Yesterday, I passed a home with this message on the sidewalk, “We may not control the wind, but we can adjust our sails.”

As I reflected on the power and truth of that sentiment, I thought about the amazing work that the hundreds of employees in our District are doing to prepare for a most unusual school year, the work they are doing to adjust our sails.  


With deep respect,
