Dear T-D Family:
This past weekend was full of soul food. The
farewell party at the White House attracted
over 50 enthusiasts as Chef Don "Kimchi"
Johnson and his bride, Cyndi, put out just
enough food for the American and South
Korean revelers. It was yet another sad
goodbye as our Asian guests made their way
to JFK for their safe return. They all left
with their Peace Mugs created as a result of
their work in the Art Studio.
T-D's host families really outdid themselves
with hospitality galore. Without cooperative
families who so willingly open their doors,
this East-West link could never take place.
Thanks for all your Red, White, and Blue
plus a little Green.
Sunday's International Heritage Night was
yet another T-D blast. It was somewhat like
eating in the United Nations' main dining
hall. T-D's Maitre-D Aly Fanelli with the
help of Annemarie, Scott, and the Mortons
plus a few other special and most helpful
parents fed about 175 guests, some dressed
to the nines and others in casual dress. The
entire evening was one of goodwill and
fellowship.
FLC's kick back in and a number of them are
designated on this month's calendar (see
below). Grades 9-12 will be at Glory Days
this week burrowing in Brooklyn. Numerous
parents from grades 9-12 have invited
themselves to join in the Glory. Come one,
come all!
In mid-March six Japanese students from Sera
High School will visit T-D. They will be
followed by a handful of Russians in late
March, early April.
I love global warming and am now trying to
"get me to the church on time."
With radiance,
Douglas E. Fleming, Jr.
Headmaster
N.B. February calendar follows:
SAFETY AT DISMISSAL
Parents are reminded NOT to park
their cars on T-D's side of the
street. This
is not permitted at any time and
cars will be ticketed. In
addition, there is a safety
concern at 3:00pm dismissal when
cars parked on both sides of
Overlook Circle narrow the
driving lane considerably.
Please park on the opposite side
of Overlook Circle only. Thank
you for your cooperation.
