Local Heros
Thank you to everyone who contributed refreshments for the Retirement Party! And a special thank you to those of you who so generously jumped in to help with set-up and clean-up -- we are grateful for your willingness to help! We are so glad that so many friends could join in celebrating the many contributions that Ana, Pam, and Susie have made to the hundreds of students they have served over the years! --Sunshine Committee
Thank you to our front office staff, Cara, Mr. Landtroop, Mrs. Nowell, Ms. Vosough and the Kindergarten teachers for creating a wonderful PES welcome for new Kindergarten students and families.
