Note from Darla Templeton, Administrator

March 1978

From the Neighborhood School feature in The Paper, March 1978. Original institutional statements and parents’ opinions are preserved as attributed contemporary accounts.

I will begin by offering congratulations to Tom Hoerr and Marj Weir for the job well done organizing and conducting the neighborhood seminars. As a result, the Neighborhood School has been invited to a red carpet week program at Hamilton. The program was delightful and our thanks go to Cleveland Young and the children and staff from Hamilton for the invitation. Also, Roger Mick has offered to the Neighborhood School the use of the fenced-in play area at Hamilton III. When the weather improves, you’ll see us there!

Our Talayna’s Dinner fund raiser was a tremendous success. The Neighborhood School truly appreciates Mike Faille’s generosity in sponsoring this event. I was pleased to see so many familiar neighborhood faces — thanks for your support and look for our gala at the FOX!! As you know, all proceeds from our fund raisers go to our scholarship fund.

This school year has been a stimulating one for us in regard to community spirit and cooperation. We would like to continue this spirit in the future. I extend to anyone an invitation to come observe our school in action at Grace Methodist or Grace & Peace or both. Just give us a call to set up a time (we don’t want you to visit when we’re not here). If you would just like to know more about us, we’d be happy to send you a brochure.
