Happy School Administration Week to Kelly Bray and Dr. Rayna Prothro from Perdew Elementary! We appreciate all of the hard work, dedication, and commitment you put in to make your school a great place to learn and grow. Thank you for everything you do.

Perdew Elementary is honoring their custodian, Mr. Valdez, for everything he does for their students and staff. Mr. Valdez is a new Perdew staff member, but his contributions to the school community have made an enormous impact. The Perdew staff and students are grateful for the hard work and positive attitude he brings every day. Mr. Valdez is always willing to help in any way he can. Thank you, Mr. V, for all that you do.

This week we celebrate our school administrators. We are grateful for all the hard work, dedication, and enthusiasm our school administrators put into their schools every single day. They do so much to help our students succeed, and it doesn't go unnoticed! Show your appreciation in any way you can—a handwritten note, their favorite snack, even just a "thank you"—and let them know you recognize their effort!
