Dear Sprague/Hunnewell,

I hope everyone had a wonderful February vacation!  Thank you for a smooth return this week.

Thank you for being hearty New Englanders while braving the winter elements during this week’s Walk/Roll-to-School Day!  Your support and participation are very important to Ms. Flitsch and me.  The support of our Walk/Roll-to-School day parent volunteers is always appreciated!
