Happy Lunar New Year! 💥
In 2024, the Lunar New Year begins on February 10th. Lunar New Year is one of the most important celebrations of the year among East and Southeast Asian cultures, including the Chinese, Vietnamese, Malayan, and Korean communities - among others. Each country celebrates in its unique ways. In China, it is the Year of the Dragon, and fireworks are used to frighten evil spirits away.
In honor of National Ronald Reagan Day, we are sharing this lovely quote, taken from his speech at Westminster College.
We share your views on the value and purpose of educational institutions. Well said, President Reagan!

It's National Handwriting Day! Here are 8 reasons why handwriting is important:
1) It helps us remember things in a different way

3) It helps with learning the alphabet
4) Learning handwriting allows us to read historic documents
5) Laptops are not always available
6) It builds creative skills
7) Handwriting is unique to each person
8) Handwritten messages are more personal
