A CHIRP OF KNOWLEDGE..
“The spirit of America is its people’s ability, in good times and in bad, to work together, to care for one another, and to learn from one another for everyone’s benefit.”  Richard Drey, 54, Red Oak, IA

Principal’s Journal..A principal’s joy is hearing from a parent to let me know how well his children have adjusted to a new school.  Change is hard.  We all know that.  But it is so rewarding to know that we all care so much about each and every child – our children are so welcoming, teachers so intuitively compassionate, and others so watchful..  As Dr. Don Clifton, founder of SRI, has been credited to say, “Our greatest contribution is to be sure there is a teacher in every classroom who cares that every student, every day, learns and grows and feels like a real human being.”   This is the ultimate compliment for all of us at Morley, and it is our strong and desire that kind of care and learning happens in every classroom at Morley.  With Nebraska Teacher Recognition Day on Tuesday, March 6, we will celebrate our contributions and our excellence – one child at a time.

PARENTS….came to hear and share stories with their first grade children and their classmates.  Since it was Dr. Seuss’s birthday, there were many stories to be found..  Many first grade parents stayed for lunch. We love sharing our love for learning with parents and other partners at Morley!  Thank you, parents, for your great support and participation.
