Full Calendar

“History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.” - Maya Angelou

Another school shooting. This time in Nashville, Tennessee. The list stretches from Columbine in 1999 to Nashville in 2023. These events are incomprehensible. Unspeakable. We are solemnly and collectively tuned to the trauma of those in the Covenant School community and beyond.

As a society, we must do better. As a school rooted in Montessori principles, we take strength from those who came before us, working for peace and justice throughout the world. We must have the courage to face this history and effect change for the future. It is our responsibility and our obligation to our children and to each other.

Lisa A. Lalama
