"I cry a lot because I miss people. They die and I can't stop them. They leave me and I love them more."
-- Maurice Sendak (1928-2012)
All of our children, and the child in all of us, lost a great one today. We hope you will find your supper waiting for you, Mr. Sendak, and we hope it is still hot.

Cramer Cottage Painting
We want to thank Benjamin Liebeskind, Class of 2007, for allowing us to use his beautiful original painting of the Cramer Cottage as our unofficial logo. Benjamin painted this when he was only nine years old!
"The prime purpose throughout is not to impart knowledge to the child, but to lead the child to observe and think."
