Meredith Huetter, Reiner’s mom:  

“I hope all is well, Sensei. Reiner ended up with Highest Honors (4.0 grade point out of  4.0) and the Principal’s Award (Excellent Effort and Conduct). A lot of Reiner’s success  is attributed to his learning at your school. All the best, Meredith” 

Michele Pipkin 

Keith Tacla, the owner or Rick’s Auto in Forestville and one of our members, had a  customer who wanted to donate her car. Keith made the arrangements and the car now  belongs to Michele Pipkin who was featured in last month’s Shoka News along with  another one of our student, Carrie Chase. A big thank you to both Keith and Carrie for making this happen. If you need your car fixed try talking to Keith.
