A Few Clouds Freeport’s retirees honored for years of dedicated service
The Freeport High School’s Performing Arts Center was abuzz with activity as the board of education, Superintendent of Schools Kishore Kuncham, and district administrators came together to acknowledge the retirees for the 2022-2023 school year during the much-anticipated Retirement Celebration.
“As the school year comes to a close, it is time for us to bid farewell to the remarkable individuals who have dedicated themselves to our students and our schools. These changemakers have given a combined 779 years to our schools,” Kuncham said. “You have nurtured countless minds, inspiring them to pursue their dreams and reach for the stars. Your dedication, passion and humor have touched the lives of so many around you and we are forever grateful for your contributions. You leave an indelible mark on our school community. Thank you for all you have done and enjoy your retirement.”
With admiration and respect, each retiree’s exceptional accomplishments and tales of unwavering commitment and dedication were shared, while they were presented with a commemorative plaque and a beautiful bouquet of flowers as tokens of appreciation.
Notably among the 33 retirees was Alice Kane, Assistant Superintendent for Educational and Administrative Services, who received special recognition from Dr. Kuncham for her remarkable passion for education and her remarkable ability to inspire students, staff, and administrators throughout her dedicated years of service to the district.
As the heartfelt ceremony drew to a close and the retirees gathered for a final group photograph, Benjamin Roberts, Assistant Superintendent for Personnel and Special Projects, took the opportunity to express gratitude and extend heartfelt thanks to all the retirees for their invaluable contributions.
“Enjoy your retirement, may you always fondly remember your time at Freeport,” Roberts said. “We wish you all the best!”
The Retirement Celebration served as a momentous occasion to honor the retirees for their outstanding service, leaving a lasting legacy within the Freeport School District.
