Hello! Happy Thanksgiving everyone! This is Dr. Webber, your Superintendent here in the Northville Public School System. This is one of at least personally my favorite holidays of the year because it involves a lot of eating, I don't have to worry about getting too dressed up or going shopping, whatever your traditions are I hope that you enjoy them. It has been an amazing fall for so many reasons, right now I'm coming to you from Cooke School where we serve students from not only Northville but around Wayne County. And really, what is behind me embodies to me the ethos of public education, why I'm grateful for you as parents trusting your children with us. To the students for being such great kids frankly. And our staff, our carrying educators, our Board of Education, everyone who makes us work, but the folks here at Cooke really this embodies public education where we serve each child to the best of our abilities and do so with love, care, and compassion. With the way that that we serve our students, I hope that you find that love and care, compassion over this break and however you choose to spend it, I am personally thankful for each of you. The welcome here to Northville has been amazing. May you eat too much, laugh too much, sleep too much, let's go for a lions victory. Be well. Happy Thanksgiving!
