Happy Administrative Professionals Day!

Today we celebrate the incredible individuals who keep our school and office running smoothly. We truly appreciate all of the behind-the-scenes work you do—your dedication does not go unnoticed.

Jaela does it all! She is not only the welcoming face you see in the office, but also helps answer student questions, covers classes when needed, takes and makes calls, assists our administration with daily tasks, and everything in between. She is our go-to person and a tremendous asset to Diagonal Community School!

Rhiannon plays a vital role in supporting our school by managing budgets, processing payroll, coordinating purchases, and helping keep operations running smoothly. Her dedication and attention to detail helps create a strong foundation for our entire school community.

Lacy not only cares for our students as our school nurse, but also steps in to assist in the office when needed. She helps keep our school running smoothly while ensuring everyone feels supported and cared for.

Thank you for being the calm, organized heart of our school. We appreciate everything you do!

100th Day of School- I had the pleasure of meeting some of Diagonal's 100 yr old students this morning! They told me about when they were young/riding their horse or walking to school uphill both ways on some really cold mornings! One individual even remembered his time up north-sledding to school each day!
