Sprinting to the finish...but enjoying the race!

Two weeks from today, we celebrate Lower School closing exercises, and the day after, June 4, we will hold graduation ceremonies for the 8th graders on the front lawn of Castalia. In between now and then, there will be a host of events, activities, and parties. Today is an example of the busy pace on campus: new student and parent orientation for Pilot Class and 6th Age, Parents' Association volunteer recognition lunch, 10th Age Crow-Canary lacrosse game on the Krongard Field at the Middle School, and the Middle School Athletics Banquet in the evening! As we round the turn and sprint to the finish, we need to enjoy the race. We need to savor the special moments, the relationships, the learning, and the many memories from the 2008-09 school year. In short, as we have our gaze fixated on the finish line, let's wave to the crowd and soak in every ounce of the atmosphere.
