Welcome back!

Hello, all!

Welcome back to a new school year and a fresh start. The theme for this year in room 301 comes from Luke 12:48: "Everyone to whom much was given, of him much will be required . . ." I invite you to accept this challenge with me as we raise the bar on our conduct, academic effort, and devotion to Christ. It's going to be a great year and I'm so glad to have you all as part of it!

Happy New Year,
Mrs. Berg
