Sept. 20, 2013 Farewell Gift

"Change is the law of life. Those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future." John F. Kennedy

Farewell
Many people dislike change; they find it frightening and uncertain, but it can be exciting. A new adventure awaits those who seek change. Our assistant principal is leaving to take another job where she will experience new challenges and grow. She is young, caring, strong, and determined; however, today she was sad for it is difficult saying goodbye to all those who have grown close to her. My Student Council officers wanted to do something special for this woman. I asked one girl who is highly creative to design a card,
and I bought flowers and a vase. We presented these little gifts this morning with heartfelt thanks to this administrator who has always been supportive of the Council's efforts. Amid the tears and hugs, there were well wishes as she begins this next professional phase. She will be missed, but certainly not forgotten. Godspeed.
