Summer school ending also means that Mr. Thackeray will now be on his way to his next teaching adventure. He will certainly be missed by all. We wish him the best of luck and welcome him back any time. Special thanks to Cristal Robbins, Laura McAllister, George Thackeray for putting together a great summer school session. And Thank you to Maribel Guerrero & Isidra Ramirez for preparing Breakfast & Lunch for the students and the staff everyday! See you all August 16th for the first day of 2024-2025!
