The High School District 214 Board of Education honored nine individuals with the District’s Distinguished Service Awards. The awards are given annually to people who have made significant contributions to the District and its students. We could not do the work that we do in preparing students for future success without the support of community members who assist in so many different ways, said Board President Dan Petro in announcing the awards. While there is, unfortunately, no way to adequately recognize the contributions of all individuals, we are pleased to spotlight the work of these eight people who truly have gone above and beyond to assist in our mission.
Letâs face it, itâs been quite a year.
When it was time to discuss the 2020 Annual Artisansâ Alley Craft Fair, uncertainty hung in the air. A huge fundraiser for the Coronado Band & Choir Boosters, Artisansâ Alley is also a day for our students to display their talents. Knowing that performances were out of the question, and that âfundraiserâ would not be an accurate description for this yearâs event, we chose to move forward. Our sole purpose? To bring some cheer to the community this holiday season. We are happy to say that our efforts paid off! It was a beautiful day, everyone was respectful of the rules, and many smiles could be sensed beneath the masks.
