GREAT staff members!!
This is the time of the year when we pause to recognize and thank all of our hard-working employees: This Wednesday was California Day of the Teacher and next week is Classified School Employees Week. I am especially grateful for the hard-working staff here at RUSD. This district is lucky enough to have the best of the best working at every level of our organization. I saw an example of that on Thursday night as we congratulated more than 190 employees for their many years of service to this District. While we are all faced with horrible budget issues and our colleagues being effected by RIF notices and devastation to their livelihoods, our staff continues to bravely serve our students. We continue to look for all options to resolve these issues while recognizing that we need to remain financially solvent. You may also take a look at the story on the RUSD Newsroom page about Adams Elementary School Kitchen Operator Beatrix Littler, who recently won the Heart of the Program Award from the California Nutrition Association. She is just one example of the incredible dedication our employees have for our students.

Dr. Miller,
ReplyDeleteI would like to publicly express my gratitude on behalf on the Early Childhood and Family Education Teachers and Support Staff for the cute box of delicious apples that was sent to us from your office. While we understand that it was just a token of your appreciation, (and everyone got one!) please know how meaningful it was to us to be included in this sweet gesture on your behalf. We are a hard-working and dedicated group who believes in the value of a strong early childhood education. Our mission is to prepare our "little learners" - and their parents - for kindergarten - and we have often been overlooked as a group in the past. We are very excited about the future and looking forward to getting to know you better.
Sincerely,
Kathy Pitchford
