Thank you to everyone that showed up a Chick-fil-a last night to support Good Foundation Academy's library. We feel that it was a great success. Thank you to all members of the PTO that came to help greet people. We hope we were able to say hi to many parents, but unfortunately I am sure we missed a few of you. We are still trying to get to know everyone, so if we missed you last night we really appreciate your support!

Thank you!

Today was the Opening Ceremonies and the First Day of School! What a great day! The whole ceremony complete with children singing and signing the Star Spangled Banner, was wonderful! Thanks to all the Parents, Board Members, etc. for coming and being a part of it! I don't know about anyone else, but hearing those patriotic songs, along with the flag raising brought tears to my eyes. I can think of nothing better to have my children involved with. Have a great first day everyone!
