🎉 Happy School Nurses Day! 🎉
Today, we celebrate the incredible individuals who are the heartbeat of our schools. School nurses do more than just take care of scraped knees and fevers; they are trusted advocates, health educators, and vital links to a healthy school environment. This year’s theme, “Nurses Make the Difference,” highlights the significant impact our school nurses have every day.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the dedication, care, and expertise that our school nurses bring to our community. Their unwavering commitment ensures that our students receive the best care possible, making a real difference in their lives.
Thank you to all the school nurses out there for your hard work and compassion. You truly make a difference! 💙

🎉 Celebrating Our Retirees 🎉
As the school year draws to a close, we take a moment to honor the dedication and service of our beloved teachers, support staff, and administrators who are setting off on a new adventure: retirement.
To Our Teachers: For years, you’ve been the guiding light in our hallways and classrooms. You’ve nurtured young minds, inspired countless students, and imparted wisdom that extends far beyond textbooks. Your lessons will resonate in the hearts and minds of those you’ve taught for generations to come.
To Our Support Staff: You’ve been the backbone of our daily operations, ensuring that every day runs smoothly for our students and faculty. Your efforts, often behind the scenes, have been vital to our school’s success and the well-being of our community.
Your retirement is well-deserved, but your absence will be deeply felt. May this new chapter bring you joy, relaxation, and the opportunity to explore new passions.
Please join us in congratulating our retirees on their remarkable careers and wishing them a future filled with happiness and new adventures!
