Thank you.
For me, these are two of the most powerful words we can use.
Starting this month, we are putting a practice in place to not only say them, but also to show them to our friends who create the magic we all experience as members of the Brave Family. Welcome to our first Thank You lunch – a chance for us to gather and celebrate excellence.
This month, we received an incredible nomination from Indian Hill Middle School Counselor Nick Carpenter, who wanted to place the spotlight on our middle school music education team…a team that works nights and weekends to ensure they place the spotlight on our students. We see what they do to curate the IH Arts Conservatory experience. Of course, we wanted to honor them.
It didn’t feel exactly right to stop there.
So, we didn’t.
Our return to school came with heartbreak over the loss of longtime Indian Hill Primary School music educator Barb Watson. Our music education team has endured so much loss.
Ms. Watson.
Mr. Jeff Clark.
We decided to gather the entire team together. To break bread. To laugh…maybe cry. Share in rich memories and exciting future plans. Say, Thank You.
I want to thank Mr. Carpenter for submitting such a thoughtful nomination. I want to thank our incredible music education department for continually rising to meet any challenges we face. You truly are exemplar in what it means to be Brave.
Dedicated to the success of our children,
Dr. Melissa Stewart
Interim Superintendent
