TEACHER APPRECIATION
A HUGE thank you to all the parents who made Teacher Appreciation
Week a success! It was such a pleasure working with you all. I
appreciated your patience and support as we worked through some of
the minor glitches throughout the week. The staff at Roland Park
expressed so much gratitude for the treats, special notes, and gifts and I
wanted to pass that on to all those who donated items and time. We are
lucky to have such an amazing school community of teachers, support
staff and families! Sarah Keith
