News and Notes from
Park River Public School
Pl Mixed Bag
By Lori Gaarder
Are you counting the days?
What are you going to do once
you retire? Are you going to miss
it'?
These are the questions I've
been hearing recently. I've never
been on to count the days; it only
seems to extend the time.
I really don't know what my
future will be, but I plan on ex-
ploring my options.
Will I miss it? Yes!
This was probably the most
difficult decision I've ever made.
but I'm confident that it's the right
one.
After spending my entire adult
life teaching hundreds of children
it will be hard to leave it behind.
l'll miss the kids and I'll miss my
wonderful co-workers.
Children have a way of touch-
ireg our lives and tying us to,our
community. That will be hard to
let go of.
As much as I will miss this im-
portant part of my life, 1 truly am
looking forward to whatever lies
ahead. It truly is a mixed bag of
emotions.
Thank you everyone tbr a very
fulfilling career.

ementaly teacher for Park River
Schools who is retiring this year.
