I have only been here a few months & you have definitely made a mark. Thank you for all that you do we see & don’t see; that no one says thank you for...Continue to let your beautiful light shine. I see you boo!!! I appreciate you. And I’m so glad you are a part of the EU family!💯👍🏾🥳😘~Ayesha~

Just look at all those GIFs! I am in awe of you. I think part of the reasoning that there is such an outpouring of love here is how you manage to make us all feel loved and appreciated. It's so impressive - you make us ALL FEEL SPECIAL. Which is your magic. How can make everyone feel that way. Anyhow, beside the special fairy glitter magic that you seem to let fly everywhere, you are just a fantastic person. I'm blessed to have known you all this time! We're blessed that you came and continue to spread that fairy magic at Elmhurst. I love you Ariel!

...and believe me, I've spent a great deal of taxpayer time and money searching for the appropriate GIFs. You are a massively powerful, graceful, impactful and kind human, and you lead with great heart and--yes--CARE at all times. I'm proud and honored to get to work with you. ~ Betlach

Ariel you are such an amazingly thoughtful and sensitive person. I’ve learned so much from you over the years and I know you have even more lessons up your sleeve! The compassion and grace you bring to the work is foundational to campus. You have a way of making everyone feel like you’re their best friend! Love ya like a play cousin ;)

There are so many incredible things about you, and one that stands out is how you elevate everyone around you. Like, CARE is care at EU, but CARE is CARE because you embody this work and push us all to do the same. Can't count the number of times you have brought the absent voice into the conversation. And you manage to do all this work while bringing so much joy. I'm buying my roller skates today.

When I met you for the first time in person at EU you made me feel so welcomed. The feeling is indescribable. You also took the time to write a welcoming email that automatically made me feel like I was part of the EU family. That email was priceless. I can only imagine how you make our students and families feel at EU!  Thank you for all that you do for our EU  community! Never forget how awesome you are!!!

Wow, you're actually the best. Your critical lens is the best. Your ability to speak the truth in love is the best.  You living your values and inviting folks around you to practice living their values is the best. Your positive energy is the best. Most importantly, your curls are the best.  Blessed to work alongside you and learn from your bombness.

Every time I see you, you make me laugh, which is hard to do! Kids absolutely love you because they can feel how much love you have for them. You take care of business AND have fun doing it, how is that possible??? Thanks for busting your ass all the time so that our school can function and hold space for the children and families that we are committed to! We would be screwed without you. Don't leave us!!! I wanna be your friend.

You are one of my favorite coworkers of ALL time. It's a pleasure working with you. You do so much to "oil the gears" and make our school function as beautifully as it does. Nothing makes my day, like seeing you doing that "fast paced strut" down the hall, on one of your missions.
Thank you for your dedication.
