Notes: Thank you to all of you for attending your child's spring progress report meeting! Each day I come to work and listen to all of the children communicate for themselves, I'm reminded of how blessed I am to have this job. Thanks to all of you...this wouldn't be possible without your love, support, dedication, and encouragement ( I really could go on and on....:))! Someday your child will be thanking you for all of the sacrifices that you have made to allow them to listen and speak. We are lucky to have such wonderful families be a part of Northern Voices! Thank you for all you do.
