First of all, I want to thank the entire R-II Staff for making school happen this year. This year has
been far from a typical year. You didn’t sign up to teach during a global pandemic, and yet you
did it. We faced new challenges each day, and yet we adapted. We made school happen for our
students, parents, and for us!
Parents, thank you for trusting me to keep your students safe.
Families were faced with many difficult decisions this year. Thank you for choosing to send your
kids into the classroom.
As the school year comes to an end, I want to extend my appreciation
to the staff, students, and parents for a great first year as principal. This year was not easy, but
it was so worth it! Have a wonderful summer, and I can’t wait to see all of your smiling faces
next fall!
