Mahogany Messenger Jan. 29 - Feb. 2 | Love, Staffing, Report Cards, School Council, Coffee, Fun Lunch,

Hello Mahogany Families,

Well, we definitely had an exciting week with a lot on the go! Thank you to all of our participants in family literacy week. We loved having students share their favorite books and it was fun to see them taking on the characters too! From full moons to melting snow, we are grateful that the weather has taken a turn for the better as we are able to get outside and play.

As we head into February, we are reminded everywhere that Valentine’s Day is on the horizon which is our visual for remembering to spread kindness and love. February is also Black History month and an opportunity to listen, learn and enter conversations with curiosity. It is always exciting to turn the page on the calendar and look towards all the possibilities ahead.

❤️
Tracy and Christine
