Thank You, Mrs. Rochford!

All over the U.S.A., it was Secretary's Day (known to some as Administrative Professionals Day) on Wednesday, April 22nd.  This is a day set aside to say 'thank you' to the people who take care of so many workplace details, making the lives of others easier.

Mrs. Barbara Rochford is in her 2nd year as secretary of Horace Mann Elementary.  She does a wonderful job assisting students, staff, families and other visitors to our school.  I always appreciate her smile, the way she keeps her cool even at the busiest times of day, and her genuine care for children and adults, alike.  Mrs. Rochford is a graduate of Lakewood High School, so the district can take a little credit for her talents :-)

The photo below shows how one class chose to show their appreciation of Mrs. Rochford's work.  The poster is hanging in the main office; check it out if you stop by sometime soon.

Thank you, Mrs. Rochford, for being a wonderful secretary.  We hope you are here at Horace Mann for a very long time to come!
