E.C.E.L - Education for Community, Employment and Life

Today, we met with our new principal and we talked about the changes in our Program. I am very excited about the changes, to bring two staffs together and create a very unique program that helps all of our students reach their potential. To feel great about who they are and what they are capable of doing.

Parent's Wish

For my child I ask:
That they seek their happiness not so much at the finish line,
  as in the running;
That they have the strength not ot life tremendous weights,
  but one fallen friend;
That they learn to fight their own battles with a never-ending
  string of temporary cease-fires;
Not that the occasion makes them smile, but that their smile
  make the occasion;
That their bridges not be built over rivers, but over
  misunderstanding;
That their wealth be not in their banks, but in their hearts;
That they gain power not over others, but over themselves;
That they bow not to little people with big titles, but to big
  people with little titles;
That their names be household words not throughout the land,
  but in their own households;
That their monuments be found not in public parks,
  but in the lives of those they've touched.

Box of Crayons

""We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty and some are dull. Some have weird names, and all are different colors, but they all have to live in the same box." unknown
