Tonight, we are celebrating the school's 20th year. We are expecting over 120 guests as we honor our past service in this area.
A significant part of our school's legacy is a talented and capable faculty and staff. No teacher has invested more time and demonstrated more dedication to teaching in our classrooms than Linda Eady. Today was Mrs. Eady's last day at St. George's. Mrs. Eady gave 16 years to the families at SGES and both of her sons are alumni. Mrs. Eady was usually the first to arrive each morning and the last to leave. Her commitment and passion for teaching is a model for all of us. We are grateful for her service.
