A special, "Thanks," goes to Haley Bjustrom for leading our new staff orientation change management project to orient and usher in the largest number of new teammates in the past 12 years; it made a huge impact. Another special thanks goes to our returning staff for the support they’ve provided our students, staff, and building this first semester. They have been tremendous, and this school year has been nothing shy of an eventful middle school adventure.
