News from Allegan Area ESA
November 2021
Greetings!

If you are like me you are also looking forward to the Thanksgiving holiday. It gives us a chance to enjoy family, friends, and good food. This year especially it provides an extended break for our school communities to recharge their batteries. I hope you have a restful break and enjoyable start of the holiday season.

We don't publish E-Notes in December, so this is our last issue for 2021. We will be back in January with more of the good news of public education.

Sincerely,

Allegan Area ESA Superintendent
