Take time to say “thank you” to those who empower you to do great things.

Each of us work for, and work with, people who permit us to do the work. As we strive to live our lives with purpose, it is important that today, on Thanksgiving Day, we recognize those who empower us to do the work.

For me, the Hilliard City School District Board of Education permits me to guide and lead our school district. The connections we’ve cultivated among our leadership team are essential in the work we do to serve young people. Building trust, grounded in core values and common commitments, permit us to collectively set a vision, establish cultural norms, and focus on continually improving the opportunities Hilliard provides for young people.

Mrs. Whiting, Mr. Lambert, Mrs. Keck, Mr. Abate, and Mrs. Long, thank you for the opportunity to serve and work with you as we live our mission to prepare each and every student in our community to be Ready for Tomorrow.
