DearWilloughby-EastlakeFamilies,
The end of the school year is just around the corner. This means it is prime awards season at W-E!
Our students are being recognized for their outstanding achievements from the school year at various award banquets and celebrations. I am very proud of our students' accomplishments and want to thank our parents for supporting their children in these endeavors
Several of our staff have recently been recognized for their dedication to helping our students Teach - Learn - Grow, including Michelle Peters, Administrative Assistant and Purchasing Manager, and Gary Brack, MSN-Ed, RN, NE-BC, and Professor at Willoughby-Eastlake’s Northern Career Institute. Learn more about their respective awards later in this newsletter.
From end-of-year band concerts and art shows, to prom and helping our seniors and their families gear up for graduation, the excitement this time of year is infectious. I encourage everyone to finish the school year strong and enjoy all that this time of year has to offer.
Sincerely,
Charles Murphy
Interim Superintendent Willoughby-Eastlake City Schools
