"Hello. Thank you all for coming to our annual meeting today. Obviously we have a lot to discuss, so I will keep this brief. I want to start off by thanking the Waupun area and surrounding communities for supporting our school district and passing the referendum last fall. Without your support, we wouldn't be able provide the amount or range of opportunities that we do for our students. I also want to thank you all for being patient with us as a Board. I know there are times where you may question what we're doing. I know that because we were all on the other side of the table in your seats at one point, and we did the same exact thing. Please know that we are faced with a lot of complex and difficult situations and that we always lead with our best foot forward to make the right decisions for our students, their families, and our community. We take our responsibilities extremely seriously, ask the tough questions, and sometimes make decisions that aren't always popular. We all either have children attending our schools or that attended our schools within the past year or two...or, in my case, recently graduated from our school district. We are invested in supporting our students and making our district the very best that we can.
Again, thank you for your attendance and interest in the future of our District."
