• Wishes of a speedy recovery go out this week to Herbert Linge, 12th grade, as he recovers from a broken arm suffered as he played basketball, to Allison Russo, 8th grade, as she struggles with a broken wrist which occurred during a soccer game, and to Alex Naime, 10th grade, as he recovers from a broken collarbone that also occurred during a soccer game. Many good wishes go out to headmaster Michael Vargo’s father, who suffered a slight stroke and has been a patient at Fairfax Hospital since last Monday.
• Have a great week, as spring marches on!
