After 34 incredible years in education, we’re celebrating the retirement of Mrs. Pelaez! 💐 Her colleagues gave her a heartfelt sendoff by serenading her with “Can You Feel Retirement” (to the tune of Can You Feel the Love Tonight). As tradition stands she rang the final bell to close out her 34th year.

Thank you, Mrs. Pelaez, for the countless lives you’ve impacted, the love you’ve shared, and the legacy you leave behind. Enjoy every moment of your well-earned retirement! 🎉
