Text Box: The Paw Print G.A.T.E. Wishes you a Merry Christmas!

Text Box: As many of you know, Mrs. McPherson’s husband, Mr. McPherson, the Junior High Principal, was in an accident over the Thanksgiving Holidays. He fell while putting up Christmas lights and broke his leg. Since the accident, Mr. McPherson has been in the hospital, and the doctors have operated on his leg to help it heal correctly. Recently, Mr. McPherson was able to return home. His family is happy to have him back home, but he still has a long road to recovery. Mr. McPherson will not get to return to work immediately. He will spend some time recovering at home. Please keep the McPherson’s in your thoughts and prayers over the holidays. Mrs. McPherson, we are so glad you are back! Mr. McPherson, get well soon!
