To Our District 7 Family and Community,
This year's D7 holiday greeting highlights artwork created by students from each of our schools, and it is a hope-filled reminder that seeing the wonders of the season through the eyes and creativity of a child truly is one of the greatest gifts.
On behalf of our Board of Trustees and administration, we express heartfelt gratitude to all who make our school district a remarkable place to learn, work, and grow. This time of year is an opportunity to pause, reflect, and appreciate the many blessings in our lives. As I look back on this semester, I am filled with pride and admiration for the resilience, compassion, and dedication shown by our students, families, and staff. Together, we’ve celebrated achievements, overcome challenges, and built connections that strengthen our entire community as we continue "Going for Great" in all we do.
To our families, thank you for your trust and partnership. Your encouragement and involvement are vital to your children’s success, and we are honored to walk this educational journey alongside you.
To our teachers and staff, you are the foundation of our schools. Your tireless efforts to inspire, educate, and nurture our students are extraordinary. You make an immeasurable impact not only on their learning but also on their lives.
During this season of celebration and togetherness, I hope you’ll take the time to relax and enjoy the warmth of family and friends. Whether you’re traveling or staying close to home, may your days be filled with peace, joy, and meaningful moments.
We look forward to welcoming our students back on Tuesday, January 7th, ready to continue "Going for Great" as we build on the progress we’ve made!
With deepest gratitude and warmest wishes,
Jeff Stevens, Superintendent
