Thanksgiving

Friends, the weather looks to be a bit of a circus this week. Snowy one day and 68 degrees the next! THANK YOU for your genuine spirit of choosing to enjoy all that God surrounds us in in Michigan! Our children are following your lead and they LOVE the upcoming changes! Thank you for being brave and layering up! 

Chapel on Wednesday

I was unable to lead chapel last Wednesday. We postponed to this Wednesday! I'll be ready for your students with some learnin' at the logs on Wednesday at 8:35! 

December 1

You will have a guest teacher coming to your space on Wednesday, December 1 from 1:00-3:00. Please plan to bring your computer to the admin boardroom. We're going to create a staff/student playbook for expectations and norms in the Forest! WooHoo! Another sign that we're growing up! Ted and Doug will be there to offer suggestions and wisdom as needed. 

Vaccine Questions

Children will likely hear of some students getting the vaccine. Because you've been entrusted to partner with our families intricately, your children TRUST and RESPECT you! They will naturally ask you questions about this vaccine. Families vary in their own health history and perspective on this vaccine. I just want to remind you that there are topics we lean on the triangle (church, home, school) as depicted in our logo:

If children ask you for your perspective on the pediatric vaccine, please remind them that this is a good question for them to ask their parents. There is SUCH beauty in each family being able to freely make decisions for the health plan for their family! Let's not interfere with that by sharing our own varied perspective. Please let me know if you have questions or concerns around this. Thank you!
