You just keep going and going and going bring a smile and laughter everywhere you went.
You have served faithfully students, parents, staff, administrators and DPS district as whole. You have touch and influenced so many lives; some you will find out about and others you will never know.
It has been a honor to work with you and you have been a great mentor as well. I have loved getting to know you so well and consider you a lifetime friend.
I hope now that you are retiring you get to take some time for yourself. You have given so much to so many now get some YOU TIME!!! I hope in some way I get to be apart of your "You Time.".
I love you and your hugs.

Never have I worked with an AP that was as personable, fun loving, and a natural people person as I have with you. You brought a different spirit to RH that the building desperately needed. I looked forward to your smiling face walking into my room to conduct an observation or for just a place to sit and talk. Your warm hugs and just your presence made me feel safe, appreciated, and cared for. Best if luck in your next adventure. Be sure to do what makes you happy and have the time of your life. And if you ever open your own massage business, let me know. I'll be your first client. The shoulder massages in stressful times is truely missed.

Best always, Beth Spataro]]> 2019-04-13 01:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351337282 Wishing you all the best in this next stage of your life. May you have peace and joy in whatever activities you choose to enjoy. Come by Rogers-Herr and visit from time to time. I'm sure many would love to see you. Take Care. https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351404774 2019-04-13 20:13:15 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351404774 You will be missed at RH, but this is by no means goodbye https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351619750 Love ya,
Tammy T]]> 2019-04-15 12:14:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351619750 When I first encountered you, it was at a track meet and you were riding your bike. I thought to myself what a cool Assistant Principal. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to work with you. Then the following year, I interviewed here at Rogers-Herr and you were on the panel. I could tell by your humor and laid back demeanor that we would hit it off just fine. It's been a pleasure working with you. I will miss your energy early in the morning at car pool and even after throughout the day! Thank you for the positive and encouraging talks! I wish you nothing but the best during your retirement. I know that you will experience lots of fun things now that you have more time to explore. As always, You ROCK! https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351757233 2019-04-15 18:03:11 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351757233 Enjoy your retirement! https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351817032 Tracey Lockhart]]> 2019-04-15 21:40:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/351817032 Dear Myra, https://padlet.com/kelly_stevens/Penuel/wish/352577349 All the best in this new chapter of your life, and thank you for all your help as I have been transitioning to also teaching middle school students at RHMS There's certainly a big difference between teaching kids that know you ever since they started school in kindergarten and starting with 6th, 7th and 8th graders who've already begun to spread their wings.

Best.

Our time together at Rogers-Herr was four of the hardest years of my life personally but professionally were four incredible years and a lot of that was because I was blessed to work with you (and Deputy Scott) everyday. I am so thankful to have you as a friend in my life and beyond excited for your retirement. I know you fake like you are so excited but after all these years pouring your heart into kids it will not be long before you are showing your face around schools or programs to continue to impact kids. It's what your beautiful soul was created to do! Nothing but love always and happy retirement friend, love you!
