A Farewell for the books! I’ll remember it forever thanks in large part to @MsCHughesinPeel. Thank you @j_varriano for being there and for being a colleague I could always count on! Excited for new adventures!
Celebrated the retirement of this amazing educator last week. @Principal_G you have been an inspiration to students, educators, families & colleagues. You made a difference to the many schools that were graced with your leadership.
Enjoy your new adventure

At this time of year, some families like to recognize staff members for their contributions to their child’s education – often with a gift. This year, consider donating to the @PeelLearningFDN ‘in honour’ of a PDSB staff member.
