FACULTY . . . FABULOUS, FANTASTIC, FAVORITE FRIENDS & FAMILY


In January, Adonna began posting faculty pictures on Facebook.
I LOVE IT!
I will say some "hellos" and "goodbyes"
to some of my favorites, or those who had been at
Alpine Elementary for awhile
(I can't do everyone...cuz I can't remember them all!)
(Sometimes, our paths would cross again.  But sometimes, I never saw them again...either
through moving or passing away.)
