April students of the month for Optimism
CAPE award winners, memorial for Tom Hernandez, and agenda for next week's Board of Education meeting in this week's Education Partners newsletter: https://psd202.edurooms.com/engage/plainfield-community-consolidated-school-district-202/newsletters/education-partners-for-04-19-2024
We are mourning the loss of Tom Hernandez longtime Director of Community Relations who passed away April 15, 2024.
Superintendent of Schools Dr. Glenn Wood said Hernandez was a thoughtful, caring person representing District 202 proudly and professionally.
“Tom Hernandez was a true champion for District 202 and was well known for his professionalism, positive attitude, and big heart. He was known as “The Voice” of 202 because he made the school cancellation phone calls and often served as emcee for district and other events. Hernandez’s legacy is one of compassion and community. He will be deeply missed.”
