Sending our prayers and best wishes to all of our newly commissioned officers, soon-to-be-graduate students, fresh employees, and others who are heading off into the world.

Thank you to all those who attended festivities this weekend, including our Baccalaureate Service, and a special thanks to Rev Rob Sturdy for sending our graduates out into the world with courage and inspiration!

All are welcome to attend these events, and we hope to see you there!

It makes sense that Administrative Professionals Day falls on Earth Day, because Ms Geri makes our world go round!
