Reconnected Report, April 24, 2025

Dear Parents,

We usually like to send our Wednesday Wire right on time—but yesterday, the Internet decided to take a personal day. A surprise outage kept us offline and out of your inbox.

Thankfully, we’re reconnected and ready to roll, so today we’re sharing this week’s update as the Reconnected Report (because sometimes you have to laugh and roll with it).

Thanks for your understanding and flexibility—we’re grateful for this wonderful community that rolls with the punches, even the Wi-Fi ones.
