To the adults in the lives of our 5,700+ #QuakerFaces students, we pledge our best as we begin a new year tomorrow: the best educators who use the best methods of instruction while getting to know EVERY student, and the best security measures to keep everyone safe. #LetsDoThis!
This morning we welcome back our teachers with an opening breakfast as we officially begin a new school year. What a wonderful group of professionals who truly love your children. #QuakerFaces #ThePlainfieldWay
