I'm going to miss our hallway conversations and our occasional carpooling! You have earned the admiration and respect of your students and colleagues - and you've definitely earned your retirement! As you know, what's past is prologue, so I hope you are able to enjoy your post-Satz life just as thoroughly as you did your many years of service. May it be a long and pleasurable retirement for you and your family!

And for as long as I have known you you have been encouraging, supportive, and positive. These qualities, along with your kind heart will be deeply missed. Enjoy this incredible next chapter in your life - Satz will not be the same without you!

Take care....enjoy!

A big hug and a hearty congratulations to you!  I am very happy for you...I don't envy Bill trying to replace the type of teacher and person you are.  As a fellow Social Studies teacher, you know I have nothing but love for ya.  As I'm typing this, I'm sitting here smiling because my favorite memory of you is during our Pep Rally...I had the kids doing that dizzy bat relay - and i had them spin so much they were running sideways..I remember you came out there and was like, "Art, stop they're gonna run into a wall!"  I was like, "aw, she's worried about her babies..."  I stopped the race but it was funny tho :-).  best wishes on for a healthy, happy retirement!

I don’t know where to start with the amount of sentiments I could write. Working in your classroom was a pleasure. It became quickly evident to me that you were diligent, professional, caring and creative. You made History come alive daily! You are truly a person of integrity and honor. Kath... you will sorely be missed in every way! But, I am so excited to have a friend in Howell to pal around with!! Rich and I wish you everything that’s good!

What a way to end your teaching career! Distance teaching and learning. Your dedication and hard work have earned you a wonderful retirement. You always gave that extra effort to make your lessons meaningful. Plus, the kids knew you had their interests at heart. I look forward to being your retirement guru! It's a well deserved time of your life.

I will always admire the sense of calm and wisdom that you brought to school every day...especially to every field trip, meeting, pep rally...you name it. Middle school is exhausting but you made it look easy! Enjoy!! We'll miss you!

From the moment I started at Satz, you have always been encouraging, creative, and a true force to be reckoned with! I admire the way that you have always stood by your convictions about what is doing right by the kids, not swayed by some shiny new gadget or program. You really have created such a culture of learning and curiosity in your classroom, and I will miss you so much!! Thank you for ALWAYS being supportive, whether it was for Sunshine, or some crazy book initiative, you were always one of the first ones to volunteer to help. And your coordination with charity opportunities with our students is one of my favorite things.

I will miss you so much. I hope that retirement is relaxing -- YOU HAVE EARNED IT!

With love,
