April 25th - Administrative Assistant Day
Administrative Assistant:
There probably isn’t anyone in school who has more daily interaction with the biggest cross-section of those that come into the school on a given day than the administrative assistant. On the phone, in the halls, in the staff lounge, and in the front office, she is literally everywhere. From bandaids to the newsletter, copies to field trip money, end of day changes to Kindergarten sight words - Suzie does it all!
Thank you, Suzie, for everything you do -
we truly couldn't do it without you. We celebrate you this week!
April 27th - Marcia's Last Concert
Music Teacher:
Music teachers are drawn to the profession due to their love of music. They play an important role in bringing the gift of music to their students. This may look many different ways, from teaching sign language and dance moves, moving music materials out of the way for the art teacher, making posters, transposing concert music to a different key, and finding something to make every student shine. They say music teachers don't really retire. Their lifelong mission is to seek out as many opportunities to “make music” as possible, whether it be with kids or adults. This means there are no limits to lifelong participation in the arts based on anything, most importantly, age!

Bittersweet for Maria, this Thursday will be a final tribute to the work she has done with the Houlton Elementary students!
