Dear Young Families and Students,
It has been a fantastic year. The 2014-2015 school year was filled with many rewarding and exciting events. Young kids are truly a smart, talented, compassionate group of children. Each day this school year I have seen Young Dolphins demonstrating the 3R’s (Respect for Self, Respect for Others, Respect for Property) within our community.
The support our staff receives from Young families and the Young PTA is truly appreciated and valued. Our year has been rich and full. We have learned a lot and grown a lot as a school body.
I would like to end the year by thanking Young students, staff, and families for an awesome school year. I look forward to seeing each of you in the fall.
Wishing everyone a safe and peaceful summer,
Ms. Morgan
