I believe that this is because the Buddha’s basic approach was to prescribe a different treatment for every spiritual ailment, much as a doctor prescribes a different medicine for every medical ailment. Thus his teachings were always appropriate for the par­ ticular suffering individual and for the time at which the teaching was given, and over the ages not one of his prescriptions has failed to relieve the suffering to which it was addressed. Ever since the Buddha’s Great Demise over twenty-five hundred years ago, his message of wisdom and compassion has spread through­ out the world.

  • July Newsletter
    July Newsletter A Note From The Oce Summer is in full swing and we are having a blast teaching and learning with our students! We've enjoyed bike day each Thursday and spending extra time outside with the beautiful weather. Our PreK classes have been enjoying a dance class each Wednesday, they had fun painting with Arts on Fire, and they all worked so hard during their basketball camp at the beginning of June! We can't wait to get back to normal and have our families back in the building! A few reminders: we are asking all adults in the building to wear a mask during drop-off and pick-up as our little learners are too young to receive the vaccine. Also, we will be doing "hallway drop-off" and will no longer be using the car pool system. We're excited to have everyone back inside the building where you can see your children in action inside the classroom! Have a great week and stay safe this holiday weekend!! -Peyton and Britt Important Update! We will no longer be asking children to wear masks at school! If you would still like your child to wear one, you are more than welcome to bring them one. Otherwise, no need to worry about bringing them back and forth each day! Staff and parents will still be asked to wear them in the building. As guidelines continue to change, we will keep everyone updated about changes within the school! Important Dates July 5th July 6th July 12th CLOSED in observance of -Welcome back into the We will celebrate National 7- Independence Day building parents! 11 Day with a refreshing -Hours changing to 7am- slushy! 6pm Back To School We are working hard preparing for this coming school year!

At a minimum? Lake Flower Smokers – do you know that, starting June 1, 2018, you will no longer have the designated smoking area out back? At a minimum? If not, you have not had the time, not been paying attention, and/or you don’t care. The Housing Authority is in month seven of a seventeen month process that was triggered by HUD’s December 2016 Smoke-Free Public Housing Rule. At a minimum, public housing authorities “…must design and im- plement a policy prohibiting the use of prohibited tobacco products in all public housing living units and interior areas …. as well as in outdoor are- as within 25 feet from public housing and administrative office buildings (collectively ‘restricted areas’) in which public housing is located.” Public housings authorities have the option of being more restrictive than this. This year, a total of six meetings have been scheduled and held at both the Lake Flower and Algonquin complexes. The purpose of these meetings has been to explain HUD’s rule, solicit feedback for those things the housing authority has discretion over, share the first draft of a policy, and solicit feedback for that first draft. If you have an interest in this topic, keep your eyes open for notices and other information. There will be other opportunities to provide com- ment.

  • Information to Users
    INFORMATION TO USERS While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this manuscript, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. For example: • Manuscript pages may have indistinct print. In such cases, the best available copy has been filmed. • Manuscripts may not always be complete. In such cases, a note will indicate that it is not possible to obtain missing pages. • Copyrighted material may have been removed from the manuscript. In such cases, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, and charts) are photographed by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each oversize page is also filmed as one exposure and is available, for an additional charge, as a standard 35mm slide or as a 17”x 23” black and white photographic print. Most photographs reproduce acceptably on positive microfilm or microfiche but lack the clarity on xerographic copies made from the microfilm.
