Dare to Serve, Day 33: 1st Grade Transition
Dear Team,
On Friday, Ms. Pitman informed me that she would be retiring and that Friday would be her last day. After serving 39 years in education and 17 of those years here at Quail Valley, Ms. Pitman expressed a desire to take care of herself and her family’s needs.
Ms. Tamez has agreed to become the Team Leader and Ms. Berry will now be our PLC Facilitator - we appreciate your leadership!
Ms. Hall has graciously stepped in to take over this classroom so that students may continue their learning. We all know how challenging it can be to start a new assignment so late in the school year.
Your Dare to Serve Challenge for your Teams will be to stop by and congratulate Ms. Hall and offer your gifts/talents/suggestions to help her have a successful experience.
Ms. Hall has done a wonderful job helping/serving everyone else- now we get a chance to let her know how much she means to us!
Thanks to all who came up to help us clean her classroom on Saturday and prepare it for learning- Mr. Mouton, Ms. Jones, Ms. Hall and Mr. Strutton!
Teamwork Makes the Dream Work!!!
