We are flying through February! It is difficult to believe that the end of the month is already in site.

It was a busy and productive week in Montgomery. In the community, our “Revitalize Montgomery” committee continues to make progress in its plans for beautifying and bettering the town. In the school, winter sports programs are wrapping up and open gyms are beginning for the spring programs. We are reaching the mid point in rehearsals for our musical. Also, the teachers had an in-service to continue to work on curriculum and the school’s iPad initiative.

Valentine’s Day was also pleasant. Whether you have a significant other or not, you can always take a day to cherish your true and valued friendships. I know I did..and I am very lucky to be surrounded by such love.
