Join us in celebrating the retirements of two long-standing and truly amazing members of our school family: Kara Harrison and Kristin Oyer! Kara has been a pillar of our 7th Grade Math department for years, shaping countless minds with her dedication. Kristin, our invaluable High School Guidance Counselor, also served as a dedicated teacher, guiding so many students toward their futures. Beyond their crucial roles in academics and counseling, both Kara and Kristen extended their commitment by serving as dedicated volleyball coaches, inspiring countless athletes on and off the court. Though Kristin isn't in these photos, their combined dedication to our students for so many years is truly remarkable. Their impact will be felt for generations. We wish them all the best in their next chapter and congratulate them on their well-deserved retirements!
