Director's note
I want to take this opportunity to welcome everyone as we begin this very exciting journey. While we continue to work towards opening day, our collaboration and cooperation generate positive outcomes for our school community. In these remaining four weeks until opening day, we would like to begin developing a school network of contacts, collaborators, and friends. We would also like to begin developing a school culture of cooperation, inclusion, and trust. In the spirit of Expeditionary Learning’s foundational motto – “we are crew, not passengers” – to build the best school possible, we all need to work together. I hope you can all in some way or another participate in and take ownership over the immediate and continuing development of our school. I look forward to meeting and working with all of you over the coming months and years.
David Manahan, Director
