 | A Note From Mr. Sandefur Lion Family, As we return from a restful and rejuvenating Spring Break and Easter Holiday, I am filled with a sense of gratitude and anticipation for the days ahead. Springtime symbolizes renewal and rebirth, and our time away has provided us with the opportunity to reflect on the blessings of the past and look forward to the promise of new beginnings. Just as the earth awakens with the arrival of spring, let us too embrace this season of renewal with open hearts and minds. In the Gospel of John, Jesus reassures us with these comforting words: "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die." (John 11:25-26) As we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, let us remember the hope and promise that His victory over death brings. May this Easter season serve as a reminder of God's enduring love for us and inspire us to live lives of faith, hope, and love. As we embark on the remainder of the school year, let us carry with us the spirit of renewal and resilience that Easter embodies. Together, let us continue to strive for excellence in all that we do, knowing that with God's guidance and grace, we can overcome any challenge that comes our way. In Christ, Jeremy Sandefur
