From the Principal’s Office
Dear Merryhill Families,
I know, it’s hard to believe — but it’s here! We’ve made it through another year of fun, transition, and development. I stand in awe with how much these children have grown and progressed throughout the year. Even though I see it every year, I am still amazed with how remarkable these students are and what these teachers have accomplished. It is breath taking knowing what a difference we are able to make in these students lives, and I am honored that you chose our school to enjoy the journey with you.
This year we have received a brand new playground environment for BOTH younger and older students, brand new AC units, brand new bathrooms, new kitchen, new cabinetry, all new paint & flooring, stabilized the building for long term sustainability due to the drought, and increased security measures with the privacy fence around the playgrounds. Talk about a whirlwind year! I cannot think of a more deserving community to enjoy our beautiful newly renovated building. Our teachers, Merryhill families, and Davis community are one of a kind, and I am so blessed to be your school’s leader. I want to thank you for the opportunity to lead your child’s school for this past year and choosing us for the next year of care for your child.
As we say goodbye to our graduates and look to the new school year and new classrooms, I want to make sure the transition comes easily for us all. I have New Year Packets available at the front desk with a few annual papers to be completed and returned by Wednesday, June 15th. This paperwork is essential for licensing and proper student file upkeep. I appreciate your efforts to help us remain current with required documentation.
As always, please feel free to contact me at your convenience if you have any questions or comments. Thank you!
Sincerely,
Jherica McEndree, Principal
