Jackson PARP-“Hungry for Books”

parp 2 jane GPARP Jane GI had a great time today reading to Mrs. Giamalvo’s class. I forgot my standard book- I Stink. Mrs. Shaughnessy hooked me up with Chole and the Lion, which was a huge hit. It just might become my new story. Special thanks to Trish Medved Christa Basel and Michelle Zaranski for organizing the day.

It is always nice to get a thank you

When I got home yesterday my daughter was just finishing writing her thank you notes to everyone that gave her a birthday gift last week. My wife and I are big believers in sending personal thank you notes. I think it is a dying art. I was touched yesterday when I received two notes from our students. Samantha Santomauro mailed me a wonderful note and Angela Ribeiro, Kerri Barnett and Meghan McCabe hand delivered a note with a picture. All of the ladies were thanking me for not cancelling the Marching Band trip to Disney last month. The Board and I were happy to figure out a compromise and I incredibly impressed with the ladies thoughtfulness. I know you shouldn’t thank people for a thank you, but Thanks ladies- you made my week.
