Director Sara and Scottie Dog Millie! |
It's officially summer for Highland Park! Three full weeks of teacher designed camp offerings ran the gamut from
Lacrosse to
Games, Games, Games to
Recreation Destinations to
Manipulating Math to
World Class Foodies to
Espanol y mas. And just like Spanish camp...much, much more. I'm thrilled that our campus served approximately 150+ campers each and every week due to the diligence of Scottie Camp Director Sara Henslee. That girl is uber-organized and on top of things!
We also had wrap-around services for campers, which went a
long way in helping things run smoothly.
Thanks teachers, thanks kids and parents, and thanks Sara. Check out some of the camp pics below and definitely check back with this blog in early August for my first posting of 13-14. Lots of information on new staff, STAAR performance, Any Given Child Year III, and other things you will want to know for the start of school. In the meantime, I encourage you take a look at the recent
The Heart of the Matter report brief, film (very well done!), and press conference video from
The Commission on the Humanities and Social Sciences. This bipartisan report speaks volumes on much of the
why behind the what we strive to do on campus each and every day. I believe you will find great value in the recommendations to the major question it poses -
Who will lead America into a bright future? Definitely food for thought.
