Roller Coaster Rides

It has been quite the roller coaster ride of a school year, and it has ended like none other. However, I am very proud of our staff and students who have held on tight and have found ways to continue to engage in the learning process through the end of the ride.  They are pretty amazing and resilient people to work through this current time.

I have been thinking a lot about some of our staff who have served the district long term. I am feeling somewhat deflated by the lack of opportunity to celebrate with them as we end the school year.  Like many events, we have had to postpone our end of the year celebration to another time.  I found this video of our staff encouraging and uplifting.  I wanted to share it with you today, so you can join me in acknowledging the longevity of our staff.  


I think it is also appropriate that we also take a moment to commend the staff who are retiring on a job well done and acknowledge the commitment they have made to the system.  These are special people that we all care about and will miss.
