Law Enforcement put their lives on the line every day. They've answered a call that is demanding and often unappreciated. The jobs are often thankless and take them away from their families for long hours. On this day, we have an opportunity to thank them for their service.
January is School Board Recognition Month, and we are so thankful for ours!
