Dear Douglas County Families and Employees,

I wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how grateful I am for you and the entire DCSD community. I am both humbled and proud to serve as the superintendent of this excellent school district.

Please accept my sincere thank you for your partnership and commitment to the students of our district.

As we look toward the holiday season, I would also like to share a few pieces of our students' incredible work -- work that illustrates this time of thankfulness and giving.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Sincerely,

Liz Fagen
