Today, we celebrated the end of the 2024-2025 school year and five incredible team members as they head into a well-earned and exciting new chapter—retirement!
Together, they’ve dedicated decades of passion, hard work, and heart to our school and their impact will be felt for years to come. While we’ll miss their presence dearly, we’re so grateful for the memories, mentorship, and milestones we’ve shared.
Cheers to new adventures, slower mornings, and well-deserved relaxation!
