“I have thoroughly enjoyed working at Old Greenwich School. It was certainly a difficult decision to leave because it has truly been an honor and a privilege to grow up with the children and families of such a lovely community. I was fortunate to work with a group of very dedicated teachers and administrators who inspired me to grow professionally during my ten years with the school. I will leave with fond memories, especially those of my interactions with our smiling children," she said.
