The best Valentine is a kind friend. Make room for others, invite someone new to join in, and choose compassion when it matters most. Kindness is the heart of good manners.

Whether it’s a card, a treat, or a small gift, giving is about thoughtfulness, not size. Say thank you with a smile, and always show gratitude, even for the simplest gesture.

True friendship is thoughtful and respectful. Listen without interrupting, be honest with kindness, and treat others the way you want to be treated. Good manners build strong friendships.

Valentine’s season is the perfect time to practice encouragement. Use kind words, include others, and look for someone who might need a little extra friendliness today. A small compliment can make a big difference.

Here is your reminder for signing Holiday Cards.🎄

Holiday cards are a wonderful tradition, and a little etiquette goes a long way when signing your family name. Remember, a family name should be plural, not possessive. Simple rules like these help keep holiday greetings polished and gracious.

Share this guide with friends and enjoy sending kindness and cheer this season.

Here are the details for the Start of the Season Pool Party! Remember this is only for students in Junior Cotillion (6th-8th grade). If you have someone interested in joining us for the season, they are welcome to attend the pool party and register during that time!

This is the beginning of learning how to RSVP, so each student is required to RSVP whether they can attend or not. Remember, this always helps the host know how to plan for parties! My cell is 901-619-2663.

If your child can attend, please Venmo me the $10 entry fee and include your child's name. This covers their swimming and food.

The pool is closed to members, so we will have the area all to ourselves. YAY! Please go over water safety with your child prior to the event so they understand there will be no rough housing allowed. There will be NO lifeguard on duty; only me and parents that wish to stay. Feel free to bring pool toys if you want.

I hope I covered everything, but if you have questions, please reach out. Remember to RSVP as soon as possible!
