Happy New Year To Our Howell Family
Howell Family,
I hope that you all have had a great holiday season and have been able to spend time with family and friends. I'm excited to wish a Happy New Year to you and to all of your loved ones. 2018 has been a historic year for our Vikings and 2019 looks to be an exciting and success filled year in Howell activities, clubs and sports.
I appreciate the continued support of those that read our weekly Viking Insider and help us to share "our story" in our many Howell extra-curricular activities. The intent of the Viking Insider is to highlight our activities, clubs and sports and to promote the success of our student-participants so that our Howell family feels a better connection to Howell. I encourage you to continue to share the Viking Insider as we celeberate and promote the great young men and women we have in our programs as well as our dedicated staff that works hard to ensure program success.
During 2018 our student-participants made their mark in the classroom, in their sport/activity, and in our community. Their performance in all three of these areas speaks volumes about the commitment to excellence we have at Howell. Howell has so much to be excited about as we begin 2019 and I cannot wait to "R.I.S.E. As One" with each of you as we continue the standard of excellence we have set.
We also have plenty of work to do as we continue to improve our programs and the overall experience and outcomes for those involved in our activities, clubs and sports. I encourage all Howell family members to become actively involved in 2019 and to continue to help support our programs as we all work to lead positive change and progress in all we do. 2019 will be filled with hard work as our programs remain committed to giving our student-participants and those in the Howell family the best possible Howell Viking experience. We will need you now more than ever to support us as we look to build on one of the top activities departments in the State to become THE best activities department in the entire State. This is our goal and we are closer than we have ever been before. Our supporters are the heart and soul of the Howell family and we recognize that your investment in our programs is a strong statement of the active and meaningful role you play when determining the success of our programs. I am more than grateful to be able to continue this journey with each of you as we enter a new year.
I look forward to continued success in 2019 and cannot wait to see what the new year has in store for our Vikings and fans. Thank you for all you have done to support our programs this year and I wish you and your family a Happy New Year! I look forward to seeing each of you in 2019!
