A Note from the Office

Dear Parmenter Community,


As we welcome the festival of Diwali, we extend our warmest wishes to all who celebrate this joyous holiday! Diwali, the Festival of Lights, is a time for illuminating our homes and hearts with warmth, hope, and positivity. This celebration, which honors the triumph of light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance, is filled with beautiful traditions, vibrant gatherings, and a spirit of generosity and gratitude.


While Diwali is deeply rooted in cultural traditions, its message is one we can all embrace. It reminds us to spread kindness, reflect on the positives in our lives, and share light with those around us. Whether through acts of kindness, moments of gratitude, or simply bringing a little extra warmth to our daily lives, each of us can honor the spirit of Diwali in our own unique way.


To everyone celebrating, we wish you a bright, joyous, and peaceful Diwali. May the light of this season fill your hearts and homes with happiness and harmony.


Be well,

Evan Chelman, Principal
