Dear
Parents,
Some
would
say
we
are
in
the
final
stretch
of
our
school
year.
While
the
final
month
of
this
school
year
is
only
a
couple
of
days
away,
the
wisdom
and
truth
gained
at
Walther
should
be
by
no
means
final.
We
facilitate
a
large
portion
of
significant
lifelong
learning,
but
learning
should
not
end.
I
hope
you
are
able
to
participate
in
the
variety
of
events
available
in
May.
It
is
a
month
packed
full
of
activities.
As
things
really
get
busy,
make
sure
you
take
time
to
reflect
on
the
goodness
of
God's
grace
as
He
continues
to
lead.
Rejoice
in
the
Lord
always!
