Another school year is coming to end very soon as I am finishing my 16th year here at Sleepy Eye Public School. It has been an awesome experience working with great students, teachers and community members. Thank you again for the opportunity to serve this community. Next year I will be shared between Sleepy Eye and Cedar Mountain, so it is a big change but I am looking forward to another exciting new challenge.
