Milton's Message 

 

September 20, 2019   

You will teach them to fly, but they will not fly your flight.  You will teach them to dream, but they will not dream your dream.  You will teach them to live, but they will not live your life.  Nevertheless, in every flight, in every life, in every dream, the print of the way you taught them will remain.

~ Mother Teresa

Reflecting on Last Week 

Throughout the week, teachers used a variety of methods to reach students.  From socratic seminars to erosion simulations, students learned through hands-on and student-led activities.  It was great to see teachers going above and beyond to reach the students and get them excited about the course content!

Grateful Moment #grateFEL

I am truly grateful (#grateFEL) for the leadership that our students display each week.  From the formal positions of leadership like the WFMS Student Council to the many informal leadership roles that students take on daily such as cleaning the cafeteria tables at Bains Elementary, our students are leading today and will continue leading tomorrow!

Jernie Miller, Skylar Minor, and Mallory Young help Mrs. Kim Tate.
