21 Looking Ahead to Next Year As you all know, I have resigned as the District School Nurse. I have enjoyed these past 2 years and will miss the staff and students greatly. My decision wasn t made lightly, and it is for personal reasons I am leaving. I am looking forward to staying home with my baby and 2 ½ year old. They truly grow so fast! Thank you for all of your support these past couple years. The School Board has been very supportive of the school nurses. Kelly and I will be helping with the hiring process and I have also developed a thorough orientation binder for the new nurse as well. I will be available anytime via phone to answer any questions. Thanks again, and I will still be around the Valley as a mother of 4 little Blackhawks. I am proud to be an RV alumni and also raise my kids in this wonderful community with such great schools! Sincerely, Stephanie Hegland
