Dear Faith North Community,
As we spend Thanksgiving with our family and friends, all of us at Faith North have so much to be thankful for.
I am thankful for all of our students who come to school every day prepared to learn and are amazing little and big Montessorians.
I am thankful for our outstanding teachers, who put in so many hours and are so committed to making sure every single one of our students is getting a quality education and preparing themselves for life.
I am thankful for our instructional assistants, nurse’s assistant, media center, front office and facilities staff who are all so critical to our mission of preparing every student to succeed and who are always so willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish that mission.
I am thankful to Phoenix Elementary School District who helps us form one impressive team as we continue to build what I believe is a school of choice that builds strong, flexible and creative learners.
Finally, I am thankful to all of our parents and families. We need you to be active and engaged participants in your student's education in order for them to succeed and we appreciate all that you do.
I hope all of you have a safe and enjoyable Thanksgiving holiday.
All the best,
Susan Engdall
Principal

Hello Faith North Community:
HERE ARE SUSAN ENGDALL’S TOP TEN REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD GIVE A TAX CREDIT CONTRIBUTION TO FAITH NORTH MONTESSORI:
10. Individuals can make a tax credit contribution up to $200 or $400 for married couples and deduct that amount directly from your 2011 Arizona tax return.
9. Our chickens and bunnies depend on us!
8. You do not need to have a child enrolled in a school to take advantage of this tax credit, just reside in Arizona.
7. More than 40% of our students participate in after school classes, your tax credit will help curb the cost of these programs so that even more children can participate and be exposed to enriching opportunities that build additional talents.
6. Contributions need to be made by December 31, 2011 to apply to your 2011 tax return.
5. Ms. Clark and Ms. Guntermann have so much energy and passion that they should probably be regulated by the Arizona Corporation Commission. Their work in our outdoor environments is crucial to a well-rounded Montessori experience. Tax credit dollars help fund them.
4. You can have an even bigger impact on the students at Faith North if you print extra copies of the tax credit form and give them to your family, friends and coworkers and maybe even post it on your Facebook and Twitter pages.
3. Provide additional opportunities to build a true classroom community and independence in the child. The upper elementary and middle school have planned some fun and educational end of the year trips to Washington DC and New York. Tax credit funds help defer some of the cost of the trips to parents.
2. Coach Larson and his afterschool middle school sports teams would love new uniforms and equipment that your tax credit may help purchase.
And the Number One reason you should give a tax credit contribution to Faith North: You can expose our students to new opportunities like some of those described above and truly change their lives in a positive way, and it is as easy as going to: http://www.phxelem.k12.az.us/district/tax_credit/ or snipping the coupon below and submitting to the school office.
