Thoughts and Prayers – |
I would like to thank each and everyone that either sent cards or had just a kind word for me and my family. Losing a loved one is never easy but working with such wonderful people sure helps with the pain. |

Classroom Visitation – |
Just a reminder, if you have a special event or you would just like me to see an important event, please give me a call. That is one of the things I like best about my job – seeing first hand all the great things our staff and students are involved in. |

Award Ceremonies – |
If you are having an end-of-the-year celebration or award program, I would enjoy the opportunity to attend if my schedule will allow it. I enjoy watching our students’ reactions when they are recognized for their accomplishments. |

End-of-the-Year Reminder - |
As we approach the end of the regular school year, it’s important to remind our entire staff that the last few months of school are just as important as the first. Please stay focused and keep high expectations for both you and your students. Remember, our students deserve our very best each and every day. Most importantly, “KEEP SMILING.” We all work for a great organization that cares deeply about the students we serve. |
