SDCCS Moving Day - Sunday, August 12, 2007

THANK YOU!!!!

Sunday was a superb example of just how a cooperative environment can work to create the best possible experience for our children.

As a charter, our budget is always tight and we are constantly looking for ways to save money. After talking with moving companies, we estimate that the work we did Sunday, and the work that staff and volunteers put in prior to that time, saved us over $20,000. That's $20K that can be spent enriching the experience of every child at SDCCS. Everyone involved should give themselves a big pat on the back. If the move was any indication, it's going to be an extraordinary year at our new home.

By the way, if you helped with the move, do not forget to record your hours as they count toward your commitment for the year. And, if you weren't able to help on Sunday, there's still an awful lot to get done to be ready for the year. If you're interested in that, do not hesitate to contact your teachers or the office and see how you can help prepare for opening day.

Again, thanks everybody. This was a great example to all of our kids of what you can accomplish when everyone pulls together.
