🔭 October 16th is National Boss's Day, and Gravette School District recognizes the leaders who keep our schools running strong.
It is easy to overlook the steady work and personal sacrifices that leadership requires when we rely on these individuals every day. Today we're taking a moment to express our gratitude for their guidance, knowledge, and commitment. The district would not function without them.
The Administrative Assistant and Communications teams partnered to share a simple gesture of appreciation, a homemade cinnamon roll from Granny’s Simple Blessings bakery and a card for each leader. Their collaboration and understanding of our community make Gravette a stronger district. They are the glue that holds everything together.
Mr. Gravette, The Vision
Leadership with integrity.
Rebecca Andrews, The Team Builder
Fostering trust and ensuring success for both students and staff.
Richard Carver, The Foundation
Maintaining the systems that keep school operations moving every day. He wasn't around when we stopped by, likely working on something far more important.
Daniel Rice, The Connector
Nothing works without him.
Coach Andrew Vire, The Spirit
Guiding the team and creating opportunities for students.
Tyler Matlock, The Support
Ensuring no child is left behind through compassion and understanding.
Sheila Roughton, The Fuel
Encouraging healthy choices and empowering students through nutrition.
Dennis Kurczek, The Money
Building stability and growth through careful planning and stewardship.
Each leader represents a vital piece of the puzzle that makes up the whole picture of our district. We also extend our gratitude to the other leaders who serve our students every day, including Lisa Thrailkill, Director of ESOL and Migrant Services, Rachel Gibson, Director of GATE, and all of our building principals.
Thank you, district leadership, for everything that you do for our staff, students, and community. Happy Boss's Day! 🦁🧡 #LionPride #GravetteSchools
