Acknowledgements
WE would like to welcome back Ms. Lydia Clark, (SPED) who was on a bereavement leave in this loss of her mother. Ms. Clark has our deepest sympathies and she has our support. Ms. Clark and family will continually be in our prayers.
WE are also saddened by the loss of our former Beasley student Tajane Brown, Class of 2015. Tajane was called home on New Year's Day and our hearts go out to Tajane's family. I would like to acknowledge some staff members who spoke at Tajane's funeral, Mrs. Stockstell (8th), Mrs. Simpson (Clerk) who gave a heart felt school resolution, and many former classmates of Tajane. We would also like to thank all of the staff members who took the time to come to Tajane's visitation.
On a personal note, this was my first experience of attending a child's funeral and it was very difficult. To lose a child has to be very hard. I can't imagine. However, what it reinforced to me is that life is so very special and that we all should take a moment to cherish it. Our children and our students are very precious.
I would like to extend a special note of gratitude and heartfelt thanks to my Assistant Principals Mrs. Penny Haynes and Ms. Jaidah Wilson. Thank you so very much for all that you do to help Beasley run smoothly. I want them both to know that I respect them and value their leadership.
In Loving Memory of Tajane Shauntice Brown Class of 2015
Congrats Mrs. Doherty! You Look Beautiful!!!
