Message From the Presidents |

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, we wanted to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude for each and every one of you. The Saxe community is truly a special one, and it is thanks to the incredible parents like you that our school thrives.
This time of year allows us to reflect on the blessings in our lives, and we are grateful to be part of such a special community. We are continually inspired by the collective efforts of parents, teachers, and staff who work together to create an enriching environment for our students. This Thanksgiving, let us cherish the moments spent with loved ones and embrace the spirit of gratitude.
May your Thanksgiving be filled with warmth, laughter, and the joy of creating lasting memories with family and friends.
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving!
Jessica Knowles & Jess Huetter
