Dear Clarendon Families,
One of my favorite authors, F. Scott Fitzgerald, wrote, “Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.” Last week certainly felt like new beginnings, with the perfect blend of fall and summer in the air. I hope everyone did, in fact, have a wonderful and restful summer. Our administrators, teachers, secretaries, aides, and custodial staff have been diligently working to “start all over again” and make our classrooms and campus back to school-ready for next week. In addition, our incomparable PTA has already started planning exciting events and fundraisers for the year ahead.
First and foremost, I am always here to help the families and faculty of Clarendon School. It is my top priority to listen to feedback, address any issues that may arise, and continually work towards improving our school. I am truly looking forward to the opportunities ahead and working alongside you to make this a year of growth, achievement, and success for all our students.
Please mark your calendars for our upcoming Back-to-School Nights (BTS). Our Kindergarten BTS Night is on September 3rd at 4:30 pm. Our BTS Night for Grades 1-5 will be on September 17th at 6:00 pm. Both events will be an excellent opportunity to meet your child's teachers, tour the school, and learn more about our plans for the year ahead.
Christine Candela
