Another BIG Shuford shout out to our 4th-grade cohort for having PERFECT ATTENDANCE on their first of two testing days. Thank you to these parents, too, for ensuring your child was here today! We couldn't do it without you all, and we are so proud of their hard work.
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms, grandmoms, foster moms, stepmoms, surrogate moms, mother figures, and to all the men doing the job of mother and father, too. It takes a village to raise a child and we are truly grateful to be a part of yours!
We hope everyone has a wonderful day!
