Thank you @ScottFMartin! The feelings are mutual. You have always been a supporter of PM & public education in your roles as commissioner, state senator, & PM resident. Lancaster is fortunate to have you in the PA Senate. I hope to be back next January for a special event!
Congratulations, my friend! It’s truly been a pleasure working with you over the years. Your dedication to your students and the broader Lancaster County community is second to none. Wishing you all the best in your new venture. I know you will make a difference there, too!

The work and public awareness that @DrBurkeHarris is bringing around ACE’s is going to change everything. I’ve been following her, and I can easily say she’s on that #hero status. Please follow and spread her messages! She is a brilliant leader and advocate for our children. – at Indianapolis, IN
