We made it! The year that was impossible has come to an end!
Alas! After 9 months, which is 1216 hours, or 73005 minutes... and enough Covid drama to last a lifetime, we have arrived at the conclusion of the school year with a tremendous sense of accomplishment for our entire school community!
On a personal note, I found each day to be highly exciting and memorable. I would like to say thank you to all for a wonderful supportive year at TDS. While it was not easy for anyone we have all emerged stronger for it.
In reflection of the year gone by, I am happy and proud to have the honor and privilege of serving the wonderful TDS students, faculty, and community at large.
