Nowruz, referring to spring equinox, is a symphony of new beginnings symbolizing rebirth of nature. As tradition, a ceremonial table is organized with 7 items each starting with the letter S or Seen in Farsi. The 7 items symbolize aspects of good fortune for the coming year.

Thank you to the @FranklinStPS students who sang “happy birthday” to me en francais and the class who played the tune on their ukuleles and those who stopped me in the hall to wish me well. Apparently, I look either 84 or 33…I’ll split the difference!

Yesterday, we had our “Rock n Roll Ceremony” where we placed our carefully designed rocks in our front garden. We’ve learned that there is only one you, and we are celebrating what makes us all unique.
