Please join us in celebrating Karen Kleiber on her retirement from CESA 7! 📣

During her time at CESA 7, Karen brought energy, positivity, and heart to every role she took on — from Executive Assistant/Office Manager to NEWYA School-Based Coach. She made a meaningful difference by building strong connections with students, staff, and community partners, and loved helping students explore future career opportunities.

Now Karen is looking ahead to new adventures filled with travel, pickleball, national park visits, and special moments with family and her grandson — and we couldn’t be more excited for her!

Thank you, Karen, for all you’ve contributed to CESA 7 over the years. Wishing you happiness, fun, and endless new memories in retirement! 😎
