Letter: Thankful for wonderful staff at ACES To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I would like to take the time to acknowledge the wonderful staff of Adair County Elementary School. Our new school is beautiful but so are the employees. We have wonderful group of people there. I frequently drop off or pick up my granddaughters there and It is so nice to have the staff meet us at the car, help the children out and give them a big smile and tell them to have a good day. I think they are going above and beyond for these children. I think it's time to let people know how much they are appreciated. Keep up the good work and hope you know that your kindness does not go unnoticed. s/Joyce Kelley 2007-11-22 16:54:00 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
