Dear Crusader Families,
I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you—students, families, teachers, staff, and supporters—for the vital role you’ve played in making this year (and the past 4 years) a success.
Your unwavering dedication, resilience, and collaboration have been the foundation of everything we’ve accomplished together. From academic growth to extracurricular achievements, to celebrating milestones, our community has shown incredible strength and unity.
To our families, thank you for your partnership and trust. To our faculty and staff, your passion and hard work continue to inspire excellence. And to our students—you are the heart of this school. Your curiosity, kindness, and spirit remind us daily why we do what we do.
It was truly a privilege to serve as your Principal. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kind words, encouragement, thoughtful gifts, and heartfelt prayers. Your unwavering support has been a source of strength and inspiration.
It was truly a blessing to be part of such an amazing and compassionate community. It was a privilege to walk alongside each of you on this shared journey.
The spirit of unity and generosity that lives in our school is something truly special. It’s what makes this place not just a school, but a family. I am confident that our community will continue to thrive and flourish because each of you contributes something unique and irreplaceable.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Sarah Bitzer
