June Letter from Dr. Moretz

June 2022
Dear Brayton Parents,
It’s hard to believe that only a few more days of school remain in the 2021-2022 school year. The days are very busy as we approach the new “normal” and are trying to reinstitute many of the events and activities that were missed over the last two years.

As many of you know, Ms. Maryclare Poole will be retiring this year after 29 years at Brayton.  We will miss her terribly, but she is well deserving of now having time to spend with her family and doing what makes her happy. I know that you join with me in wishing her the very best in future years.

We are looking forward to enjoying the many upcoming activities – Field Day, EOY Parties, Fifth Grade Recognition, just to name a few. It has been so rewarding to see things finally getting back to the way they should be at Brayton. Open House was a perfect example, seeing all of the smiling faces of students and parents as they walked around the school.

I hope that you all are planning to take this summer to relax and have fun with your children.  Whether it’s playing in the yard, taking a day trip, or going on an extended vacation, enjoy those
moments together – the years pass much too quickly.

Have a wonderful summer! Stay safe and well, and we will “see you in September!”

Kindest Regards,

Cheryl
