Schewe Speech
Happy Last week of School Hanna Woods!
First and foremost, a huge thank you to all the parents and staff that helped make our field day and hot dog roast a success. The cicadas will truly make this year's field day memorable!
As we come to the close of another wonderful school year, I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your unwavering support and involvement in our school community. Your dedication and partnership have been invaluable in creating a positive and nurturing environment for our students to learn and grow.
This year has been filled with numerous achievements and memorable moments, from our new parking lot to the everyday successes in the classroom. Watching our students thrive and excel has been truly rewarding, and it would not have been possible without your continued encouragement and commitment.
Friday was my official last day I will be taking a leave of absence starting this Monday and continuing through the beginning of the 2024-2025 school year. During this time, our dedicated staff will continue to provide the high level of care and education you have come to expect. While I am away and students are in the building, Dr. Lisa Counts will be my sub administrator.
Thank you once again for your support and understanding. I look forward to returning and continuing our work together to make our school the best it can be for our children. Wishing you and your families a safe and joyful summer break.
