ΧΡΟΝΙΑΠΟΛΛΑ! Greek School is now completing another wonderful school year. e last school year was something that we could not have an- ticipated or planned for, but WE MADE IT!

I also want to thank parents for supporting your children and helping them to participate in remote learning. We are so very proud of the children and their progress.

ART WORX 858.292.6070 artworx-us.com Nektarios Tradas Founder, Creative Director As the planning continued, the commit- tee worked faithfully to balance the needs of the community, the long-standing rep- utation of our annual festival, and the news that the state would soon be relax- ing safety restrictions. Unfortunately, as the committee strived to move forward, it became increasingly clear that the ben- efits of holding a hybrid event were easily outweighed by the risks of uncertainty and the possibility of damaging the proud reputation of our Greek Festival. Reluc- tantly, and after careful consideration, the committee concluded that a festival event of any type would not be possible. As we move forward, let us keep our sights set on bringing back our Greek Festival in June of 2022.
