Happy
Thanksgiving |
Each year at
this time, we take great pleasure in setting aside our
regular work and sharing a time of reflection with our
family and friends. If we can do this, we are sure to
find many things for which we should be thankful. It is
my privilege and pleasure to work with all of you in
caring for and educating our students. I am grateful
for your help, your cooperation, and your support.
On behalf of the Region 15 Board of Education, I extend
best wishes to you and your loved ones for a very happy
Thanksgiving. |
