Time is precious and as we transition from how quickly Thanksgiving arrived to how we continue towards a brand new year, I cannot help but be humbled and impressed during this thankful and giving time. WSSD continues to demonstrate the willingness to give and shows us that what we do goes into what being a good neighbor, friend, and community member are all about. I have seen many of our students, staff, and community donate clothes, food, and time. I am witnessing collections for our anticipated Martin Luther King Day of Service and collections towards other local projects. All of us have lived experiences towards items that are bigger than just around our community. These are opportunities to obtain personal knowledge about the world gained through direct, first-hand involvement in everyday activities. I want to thank families, friends, and loved ones for all you give to our school community.
This week we held the reorganization meeting of the School Board of Directors and we welcomed two new members to our School Board. Mrs. Michelle Williams, a proud parent of three children at SHHS, SHMS, and SRS. Mr. Robert Miller, a proud parent of two students at SHMS and NPE. I look forward to working with both of them on their individual and collective expertise as we set our focus on our strategic initiatives. I encourage you to visit our website to read their biographies. I would be remiss not to extend my gratitude to Ms. Wendy Voet and Mr. Larry Kutys for their long standing service and contribution to the WSSD School Board.
Let me share with you a few highlights from the week, as well as reminders of the upcoming meetings and events.
