Dear Friends,
It is with great excitement that I introduce to you the online version of Connections, our new and improved newsletter for The Country School community. I hope you enjoy the web-based format and informative articles featured in this edition.
As you will read in this edition, we are pleased to announce a new tagline that describes the powerful impact of education at The Country School. You will see Igniting Minds, Inspiring Lives appearing more and more as we update material about the school.
As this is a season of thanksgiving, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for making The Country School a truly exceptional community of inspired learners. I wish you and your families a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
Sincerely,
Joseph A. Perez |

We take great pride in the fact that The Country School has been at the forefront of this issue for many years; and we have invested significant resources to develop a comprehensive human development program. Anti-Bullying Week is but one prong of this multi-faceted approach. It is important to note that when Anti-Bullying Week ends, our efforts continue and affect almost all aspects of our school culture.

The small, close-knit atmosphere makes it an ideal learning environment for all students.
