Today, we celebrated the retirement of some truly wonderful ladies whose love, dedication, and service have made a lasting impact on our school. While they will be greatly missed next year, the legacy they leave behind will continue to be felt for many years to come.

Thank you for the countless lives you’ve touched, the memories you’ve helped create, and the years you poured into our school family. We love and appreciate you more than words can say.

Wishing each of you a retirement filled with joy, rest, and all the happiness you deserve! 💛

Mrs. Tracy Walsh
Coach Wendy Weathers
