Now everyone is looking forward to Thanksgiving break. At this time of year I would encourage you to reflect on all the things we have to be thankful for. Here are a few things that I’m thankful for:
- This great school from which I was blessed to have graduated from.
- Our great staff, what a great team with diverse strengths to work with.
- Awesome students, I can’t imagine another school having better (thanks for your part in that J).
- A great church, our school would not be near what it is, without the Adventist system we have.
- Our soon returning Savior, many of us have experienced pain and/or death in our families this past year, how would we make it without the knowledge that we will see our loved ones again soon.
God bless,
Troy Patzer – Principal

Greetings!
The band had a great trip to Lake City Junior Academy in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho and Mountain View Elementary School in Missoula, Montana last weekend. I’ve received a glowing report on the wonderful performance and how well-behaved our students were. That’s credit to you parents, thanks for sending us such great kids! The Choraliers are leaving tomorrow afternoon to perform in Kettle Falls and Colville.
