Hi,

Good morning! I hope you had an opportunity to rest, recharge, and rejuvenate after pouring so much of yourselves into our students during Week Without Walls. Last week was a powerful reminder of the incredible impact you have on our students’ lives. The opportunities you provided extended far beyond the classroom, allowing students to explore new places, challenge themselves, build relationships, serve others, and create memories that will stay with them for years to come.

I hope you can see the value in the time, energy, planning, and effort that went into making those experiences possible. While the week can be exhausting, the growth, confidence, and joy we see in our students make it worth it! Thank you for your commitment to providing meaningful learning experiences that help shape our students.

Thank you as well to everyone who volunteered or sold items at the PSG Garage Sale this weekend. It was a successful event on a hot day, and we appreciate the many ways our staff continue to support our school community.

Today, our elementary students will take the stage one final time as they perform Peter Pan Jr. during the Festival of Musicals at 12:00. Thank you to everyone who has supported this second production through class coverage and logistics. A special thank you to Natasha for her leadership and dedication in bringing this production to life. Be sure to tell our performers to break a leg!

It is hard to believe we have reached the final three weeks of the school year. The calendar is full of important events, celebrations, and end-of-year tasks as we work together to finish the year strong for our students. While the weeks ahead will be busy, they are also among the most meaningful as we celebrate growth and the many successes of this school year and prepare to say goodbye to those leaving our community.

Anna shared information about our staff celebration on Friday, June 5th. The event will be held at Izzy's, and additional details will be shared later today. Our end-of-year celebration is always one of the highlights of the year as we come together to recognize all that we have accomplished as a community!

This will be my final end-of-year celebration with the QSI Skopje team. I cannot think of a better group of educators, support staff, and leaders to celebrate with. It has been a privilege to work alongside each of you, and I am looking forward to spending this special evening together!

Have a productive week of teaching and learning! How will you be your best this week?

Thanks,
Heather

Tuesday, June 2nd: Staff Meeting

Tuesday, June 9th: Final Staff Meeting

Tuesday, June 16th: No Meeting (Spring Show)

#BetterTogether is more than just a catchy phrase—it's our collective commitment to being our best so that we can help our students be their best! At QSI Skopje, we take pride in our culture of continuous improvement, and together, we can positively impact our community.

To understand challenges and find creative solutions, we need to hear from YOU! We’ve created an anonymous staff feedback/suggestions form that is available to all staff members. This form is your tool to identify problems and propose solutions that can benefit our entire school community.

While the form is anonymous to ensure everyone feels comfortable sharing, we strongly encourage you to include your name. This allows us to follow up, gather more information, and collaborate on finding the best solutions.

The feedback form will be included in the Weekly Lynx indefinitely, so you’ll always have easy access when needed. Let’s work together to continue making QSI Skopje the best it can be!
