Happy Thanksgiving USD 388 Families,
As Thanksgiving break approaches, I am thankful for the opportunities staff has had to work with your children. We are so proud of their personal and academic growth and successes so far this school year. Your children are fun, focused, and dedicated to meeting their educational challenges.
In this season of reflection and gratitude, I sincerely say “Thank You!” for everything you have done, are doing, and will continue to do to help and support our students, our staff, and our wonderful school community.
Finally, may you and your family experience a most restful break.
Janice Wilson
