Summer Break!

June 21, 2008

Dear LREI Families,  

The school year is now officially over. The students have left for the summer, the faculty has had its celebratory end-of-year lunch and we have said our goodbyes.  The classrooms have been readied for Summers at LREI, our summer camp, which begins bright and early on Monday morning.  As we look back over the past few weeks, and the whole school year for that matter, there has been no shortage of opportunities to watch our students, your children, at their best.  As always, one of our grandest events was our high school graduation.  Please visit www.lrei.org to see photos of this year’s commencement exercises.   Thank you to all 564 LREI students for your hard work this year. We are very proud of you.  Thank you to each LREI family for all that you have done to support the school and its progressive mission.  We are grateful for your participation. Thank you to the parent reps, committee chairs and the PA Executive Committee.  Thank you to Kasey Picayo, outgoing co-president of the Parents Association. Kasey has been a superb advocate for the school and its families and will, I am sure, continue to be an active and important member of the LREI community.  Another special thank you to Marthe Jocelyn, parent of one of our wonderful seniors, who will be moving away from the school next year.  Marthe, a trustee and member of the LREI community for many years, was one of the founders of the Literary Committee and an active participant in many, many LREI activities and initiatives.  Marthe, thank you for all that you have done and, knowing you, will do in the future. 

To all, have a wonderful summer. 

Best, 

Phil
