Congratulations to Mrs. Miner on her upcoming retirement! We will miss her terribly, but we are so happy for her. She is a forever Yellowjacket, and we thank her for her 9 years of service to our school. We sincerely hope she enjoys lots of traveling and relaxation.
Emerson Family,
You have all been an important part of my journey as an educator and with a heavy heart I am retiring from the Butte School District #1 in June. I am so lucky to have been in the position to watch kids grow up academically, socially, and physically. Their laughter and smiles have a permanent place in my heart. Therefore, I will still be watching for their successes, but at a distance. We do not know who will be your next principal. However, I am certain he/she will feel welcome right away.I feel like Winnie the Pooh and say, “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard,” A.A. Milne.
Sincerely,
Mrs Brenda Miner
