Thanks for your tireless work making HP PE, Archery, Scottie Olympics, Fun Runs, and You Go Girl Camps amazing!
You have taught lessons that will stay with our kids a lifetime.
Both Sascha and Siena will always carry with them, "The dream is free, but the work costs extra," and all of your many words of wisdom and inspiration.
Enjoy retirement! You'll be missed!
Love, The Polonski Family (Eric, Tara, Sascha, and Siena)

Coach,
How can I ever thank you enough for helping both of my kids enjoy PE. For Jackson, he had not been included in gen ed PE until you created a "King Jackson" position for him to participate. For T, giving her such great coaching advice and mentoring for archery was such a great contribution to our lives! You are the best. Simply. The. Best. Hugs, The Suttons

Coach, it's hard to put into words how thankful we are for you! You took our then nervous, hesitant 1st grader and made her feel safe and included. All the cheers, pep talks, Scottie Olympics, Fun Runs, and archery competitions have made a big and lasting impact on Frances's confidence and resilience. I'll never forget when 3rd grade ended abruptly in 2020 and we came up to school to collect Frances's school supplies. She was tearing up, missing school, and you happened to be outside and sat down with her to have a private chat. I'm not sure what y'all said to each other, but she was much happier afterwards and knew things would be ok. You've been a fun, consistent, and understanding role model and we will miss you dearly! I wish Vin had more time with you, but all good things must end eventually. We wish you all the best in your retirement!
Love, The McCabes (Joe, Lacey, Frances & Vin)

Coach Deline,
Last year was a hard year to be a fifth grader, to lose out on many things you had looked forward to getting a chance to do because of the pandemic. Your perseverance to bring back archery and Scottie Olympics during a crazy pandemic year last year gave our daughter Kaitlyn the opportunity to have something to look forward to and to cherish her final year at HP. Avery loves your fun games “especially the hockey one”. Thank you for going above and beyond and helping make Highland Park a special place for our family. Enjoy your well deserved retirement!
Love, the Dillingham family

Coach, Some are very fortunate and blessed to have rare individuals like yourself mold their children into a better version of themselves. Cienna and Denali are two of the lucky ones. Both our girls had the opportunity to be coached by you not only in school but also in archery. Three time state champions. Wow! You not only introduced this wonderful sport into their lives but also instilled in them the fight to compete and build character. The Patel family and girls will always cherish this and reflect on how awesome you were and are. The “dream is free but the work costs extra” is a lesson for the girls to carry throughout their life journey. God bless and enjoy your retirement. You are one of the best!

What luck we have had to know you. You have one BIG HEART and you taught us compassion, you inspired us to keep trying, to stay focused. Together as a team and as a community anything can happen. Your core value, without a doubt, is HEART.  And in that value comes so much more: Determination, humor, fun, engagement, embracing life, celebrating our wins. We move on bettering ourselves as the win is not the outcome rather it is the opportunity to play in the game of life. With Gratitude for all you do, The Mirshahzadeh Family
