❄️ Welcome to December! 🎄
As the days grow shorter and the festive spirit takes hold, we step into the final month of the calendar year—a month focused on reflection, preparation, and celebrating our accomplishments so far. We trust that the momentum you’ve built throughout the fall remains strong as we approach the winter break.

This is a crucial time for our students to solidify their learning and finish the first semester successfully. Our continued dedication to fostering an environment of respect, inclusion, and academic rigor is more important than ever. We are incredibly proud of the hard work and growth we have seen across the entire Philadelphia school community.

We encourage all students to maintain strong attendance, engage actively in their classes, and utilize all available resources to ensure they finish the semester ready for success in the new year. Let’s work together to make this December a month of high achievement and positive community spirit!
