Collin

Collin, a 5th grader at Moreland Elementary, has been hospitalized at Egleston for Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis. This is an autoimmune disease where your body attacks your spinal cord. They do expect him to make a full recovery but it could take several weeks to months and he will most likely need physical therapy.
He is currently being heavily sedated in order to prevent him from moving his lower extremities.
Please keep him in your prayers!

State Writing Test

We took the state writing test today, and I think the students did really well. Based on my observations, students worked really hard. They seemed focused. They planned, drafted, revised, edited, and rewrote their compositions. Most seemed to be satisfied with their topic and able to produce writing of more than a page. No matter what the scorers say, I know they've come a long way and really developed into writers.
