Thank you for all your guidance and help! This was my first year teaching at the freshmen center and you were one of the first to truly make me feel like I was acknowledged and welcomed here. Best of luck to all your future endeavors!

LORI!!! My home girl! How am I going to survive without you? You make work so seamless! You always have the best attitude and you totally get it. You are so good with the kids and even better with us! Thank you for being a great friend and colleague. I'm excited for you to start the next big journey with your babies, Roscoe and Poppy. Of course I'll be seeing you, but it just won't be the same with one less boss parrot! Love you, girl. - Casares

Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to the students and staff. I am going to miss your enthusiasm and energy; the freshman center will not be the same without you. I feel cheated that most of our year together was virtual. Enjoy retirement and time with your doggies. You will be missed!

Recently we chatted about retirement and you said you could see yourself in the near future blissfully counting nails at a hardware store.   I wish you all the best in this new endeavor and know that those nails will be the luckiest, smartest and most fiercely loved nails in the whole wide world of hardware.  Everywhere you go, everyone and thing you touch has been and will be better for it.  Thank you for all you did for your students and your Poly family.  And for all you will do for those nails!  : )

I do not think I could have made it through my first  year without you! Thank you so much for being there for me whenever I needed help. Although I have only known you for a short while, your caring nature and willingness to help others will influence me for years to come! I hope you enjoy your retirement knowing your legacy will carry on! Please stay in touch!

Love,
Bobby

Thank you so much for all of your support as our Freshman coordinator over the last several years!  Your contributions to Poly HS as a coordinator and as an English teacher are immeasurable, and you have positively influenced thousands of lives, including mine.
I wish you much happiness and success in all your future endeavors as you transition into your next chapter in life.  Enjoy the freedom of time to spend with your puppies and to do as your heart desires

Though your time here is coming to its end, the real fun begins after June 4th :)  It was a pleasure being your neighbor when we were last on this side of the street, now some years ago.  I hope that when you look back on your time as an educator that you do so with fond memories.  Thanks for all of the support you've given me when we were part of the main collective.  Honestly, I find myself wishing that I could be in your shoes right now, and it won't be long before I am.  In the meantime, your presence here will be missed greatly.  You add something truly special to our SLC and to the Poly culture.  Be safe and well, always.

You ARE Poly Freshman Center. You are our personal cheerleader, ringleader, and mom. Your presence was felt everywhere even online. We will miss all your contests, supervision, fundraisers, costumes, lip syncs, end of quarter potluck parties, dog mom--the whole Sha-bang! Wishing you the best in all your endeavors, side hustle, and posting on social media. Not goodbye, but see you soon.

It has been a pleasure working with you these years. From speaking with you during lunch and working with you in the freshmen center.  I know you will enjoy your retirement time.  Never lose that dynamic spirit of yours.

As cool as this Padlet is, it is making me sad. I know I got years on most of the people in here but you were also one of my primary supports when I started at Poly in late 2002. Although I never really had an official mentor, you were definitely one of them. We have history in this ninth grade thing as teachers and as out of the classroom support people. I was bummed when you left Poly but I am so glad you came back to us. I appreciate all the things you did for me. You helped me make this job into a good life. What I learned from you continues on with me. I will miss you and appreciate it all.

I want to wish you the very BEST as you navigate this new chapter in your life.  I will miss the never-ending support, guidance, Halloween costumes, talks, laughter, and, of course, your Friday dances.  MUCH LOVE!!!  Maya

What can I say? If it weren't for your guidance, love, and dedication, I would not be the teacher I am today. "Just love them" you said and they are words I live by. I miss seeing you everyday but I know we will hang out once you are settled into retirement. Enjoy! You deserve it Love always, Feel the Byrne.

I would not have survived my first year of teaching without your guidance. Thank you for everything over the years! Can’t wait to see what you get up to in the next phase of your life. Love, Alex
