    • We welcomed students back for the 2012-2013 Academic Year with oranges
      
    • The reason for the oranges:
      We are like flies scurrying around the surface of an orange.
      We will only taste the peel if we scatter our attention and effort trying many different approaches and giving up after brief periods of time.
      To reach the juicy center, we must focus and dedicate ourselves to our practice.
