Shine on 39  

This edition of “Shine on 39” showcases our Writing/ELA curriculum. As we returned to a more traditional school setting after the COVID-19 pandemic, one focal point for our students was writing and written expression. We are grateful to all of our faculty and staff for their dedication and commitment to our young writers!
