Dear Sonrise family,
As Teacher Appreciation Week approaches I find myself reflecting on the immense gratitude I have for all of the teachers who play such an incredible role in shaping the minds and hearts of our children. This week is especially important to me, not just as a teacher, but also as a mom. My son is a third grader here at Sonrise and I am continually blessed by the care, dedication, and love everyone at Sonrise pours into his life each day. From the playground to the classroom, there is no place on campus where he cannot find someone who loves and cares for him as if he was their own. It is an incredible privilege to know that the people involved in educating my son are among my closest friends.This bond we share extends beyond the classroom and helps contribute to the sense of family we have here at Sonrise. Philippians 1:3-6 says, I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.” Parents, I thank God for you and your commitment to partnering with us to provide a Christian education for our children. We know that God will continue to do the good work that He is doing here at Sonrise.
With love,
Jessica Holmes
