Returning "Home" to Council Bluffs
I returned to my home district, Council Bluffs Community School District, on Tuesday, January 24th. Patti Lu Ford, Southwest UniServ President accompanied me throughtout the day. I started the day by visiting with Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Richard Christie (pictured here). In addition to his Council Bluffs Community Schools responsibilities, he is chair of the Urban Education Network, a group which is made up of the largest 8 school districts in Iowa. Thanks for your leadership, Dr. Christie!
Walnut Grove School secretary, Debra Campbell, is one of many great school secretaries that I have honored this year with a "magic wand" from Team ISEA. I present each school secretary with the "magic wand" and a card that states: "Thanks for the magic you do every day!" We all know school secretaries are the first to meet parents and the public as they enter our buildings. School employees couldn't do our work without school secretaries!
Council Bluffs EA past-president, Jo-Ann Tews (pictured at left) allowed me to read to her fifth grade homeroom at Walnut Grove Elementary. One student shared that "Mrs. Tews really talked you up!" Thanks Jo-Ann for your leadership in the classroom as well as in the association!
Pictured at the right are Mrs. Teresa Rindone's homeroom. They did a great job of helping us through the read aloud. Keeping reading, reading, reading students! You will grow as readers and writers the more you read and the more you write!
