Superintendent Welch honored district retirees just prior to the school board meeting on June 10 saying, "Thank you for the good work you have done over the years and for the impact you have had on children." Each retiree present was given a certificate of appreciation and a district medallion coin for excellence of service. Sharing visions of more time for travel, gardening, and other interests, retirees mingled with board members, colleagues, and community members.
