It’s about time for all of us to begin the holiday season which means it’s also a great time of year to reflect on the blessings we enjoy. This year in particular, we should all take time to be thankful for what we have. I looked for a quote that might fit this year and found the following:
“The true meaning of Thanksgiving is not what we say about our blessings, but how we use them.” --WT Purkiser
There is no doubt that in the coming months we will be challenged to find ways to best use the resources we are blessed with.
Thank you again for the effort, hours and passion you have invested toward providing a great education for the students of Thornapple Kellogg. We are all in education to make a difference. Please always remember that your efforts on behalf of kids are an investment in the future of our community and country which will pay tremendous dividends.
This Thursday I will again be giving thanks for being able to serve you and this community. Being at TK continues to be the best professional experience of my life and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity. I hope you get some time to enjoy your family and friends this weekend, and have the chance to remember how truly fortunate we are -
Happy Thanksgiving!
