Shout out to Administration and EVERYONE!

I know how tough it has been on everyone, the teachers, all the staff in the front office and those keeping things clean for us, keeping everyone fed, and getting the students here the best they can.

I am not exactly sure of all the extra stuff the administration has to do, I know the rest of us are gutting it out like Marines and I am sure that you are right there in the trenches with us.

May we all make it through this year with our mental and physical health intact!
Namaste
