Dear Members,

We know this school year has been one of the most challenging and unpredictable years ever. You have all been working within a pandemic, making sure your students and coworkers are safe and supported. You have all been fantastic. The Board would not have made it through these uncertain times if it weren’t for you; you are the power of public education, for that we thank you. We want to take this time to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a safe and

happy New Year. Although we will all be doing Christmas a bit differently, we wish you all the safest and well-deserved Christmas break. During this holiday season, we hope you find time to refresh and relax.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Sherry Wallace President

Cynthia Steeves VP
