Holiday Support Gathering at Hospice on November 13th
Good evening,
Let’s be honest: the holidays are stressful! You’ve got relatives coming to town, long lines, holiday traffic. Add to all this the fact that the days are getting longer (and colder!) and it’s easy to see why people often slip into unhealthy eating habits over the holidays.

We’d like to hear from you!
I hope members of our community will vote against consolidating our local school boards into a centralized mega-board. A consolidated board would remove the power to make locally responsive decisions and intentionally sever the bonds between communities and their schools. A single board will find itself so busy administering multiple facilities that expediency will force them to limit local input.
