Superintendent's Message -- November

Superintendent’s November Message

November is one of the best months of the year as it has one of my favorite holidays in Thanksgiving.  Thanksgiving is a great time to get together with family and friends to make and share many memories.  Make sure you take the time to do this with your loved ones.

Thanksgiving allows us to reflect and give thanks on numerous different levels.  We clearly should be thankful for living in the greatest country the world has ever known.  We live in a country where we have the freedom to live life as we wish without infringing on the rights of others.  Here in the Herscher School District, we can be thankful for a community and parents that continually support education and consider it to be one of the highest priorities.  We can be thankful for a highly qualified and dedicated staff that works endlessly to provide the best in educational services as well as extra-currricular opportunities for students.  We are all thankful for our children, clearly the greatest gift any of us will ever receive.

As you take time over Thanksgiving to count your blessings, enjoy some of the finest food delicacies of the year and visit with family and friends, please remember those less fortunate, who may be without work, without family, or who may have lost loved ones over the years.  Do not hesitate to volunteer to work at a food pantry or to work at a community dinner.  These are opportunities where we all can give back to those that are less fortunate.

Have a great holiday season!!
