Congratulations on your well-deserved retirement! Thank you for your dedication and support to the students and families at Spring Valley. It was a pleasure working with you through the PTA and I also appreciated your willingness to work with all of our ideas for both of my kids' 5th grade class events.

I didn't work with you for a long time but every instance I got the chance to talk to you, you have always been SO vibrant, so willing to do what you could...at the end of last year, I was so taken by your willingness to carry on for one more year and get our community through one of the toughest years we have seen. You deserve this retirement. Please know you made a positive difference in the lives of so many families and students. With you love, happiness, and peace ~ Joy Pasamonte Henry, MEF

I'm grateful for the opportunity to say a few words about you as you move on to your well-deserved retirement.

You've been an absolute treasure to Spring Valley School and the Millbrae Elementary School District. I've admired from afar your thoughtful and caring approach to our kids and your job.

You are a true professional in every sense of the word, Kathy. It's been an honor to know you. I join my fellow Trustees in wishing you nothing but the best as you start the next chapter of your life.

Best regards always,

Don Revelo
