A Lion's Tale

M Counts

Greetings Laurel Ridge Families,

It is with grateful hearts that we close out 2024 and send our students off for Winter Break.  Members of the Laurel Ridge staff came to this work in a variety of ways, but we all share the commonality of caring for our students.  This work is filled with joy, surprises, and responsibility.  It is a privilege to work with your children.  I wish you a safe, restful, and joyful Winter Break. 

Happy New Year!

Megan Counts
