When I ask Turning Point community members what qualities they think our alumni developed at Turning Point, almost everyone says, "leadership," "confidence," and "problem solving."
At Turning Point, we raise resilient children who can flourish in any environment. Children are active participants in every aspect of their own education, and we leverage their creativity and enthusiasm to effect positive transformation.
Both our youngest and oldest Turning Point students faced big challenges last week. The compelling stages of childhood developmentÑwhich makes this a special time for parentingÑis fascinating to witness as an educator.
What an amazing first day! I may not quite yet have succeeded in my quest to get to know each of you personally, but I am well on my way. And what I did learn about our community in just one short day is both inspiring and reassuring.
