Hi Justin – thanks for your encouragement! I am super excited about Cohort. I actually saw a colleague of yours yesterday – Jill (Grade 5 at your school) and was telling her all about it. She said she is interested but wasn’t sure if it is too late to join us. Looking forward to seeing you next weekend!

Hi Jen – I am excited to connect with you at our next F2F and hear all about life at CDS! I was a student at CDS my whole life – JK- OAC – and absolutely adore the school. Lots of changes happening. I don’t even recognize the place anymore! See you next weekend.

Thanks Vanessa! You are a major reason that I am apart of Cohort. I am so lucky to have you as a colleague at BVG.
