News for the Community from Superintendent/Principal Dobosz – 3/12/2021

Greetings Community,

Hope you have enjoyed these last few days of spring like weather!  It’s lovely to see the students shed their layers and enjoy time outside and the sunshine!

This Saturday is the one year anniversary of the COVID lockdown and beginning of this pandemic.  Many social media and news organizations are inviting viewers to share the final picture they took before the coronavirus was declared a pandemic.  These images are incredibly striking for me because you see groups of people without masks, people attending concerts and sporting events, family reunions, couples at dinner, and people hugging one another tightly.  These photographs captured treasured moments for people and reminds me of how much I miss the way things were before the pandemic.  I am curious what treasured moment in a photo you captured before the pandemic and lockdown.  I invite all members of the school and the Worthington community to share their last photo before the coronavirus and we will create a slideshow with these photos to be shared with everyone.  Please email me your photo at gmorsedobosz@hr-k12.org
