Mr and Mrs. Culver Retire

As you all know, Mr and Mrs. Culver are retiring at the end of this 2009 school year. They have had a long journey here at PLMS.

Here are some quotes from Mrs. Culver:

"I haven't done anything extra ordinary, become famous, or lit the world on fire but maybe I have inspired a student to do one of those."

"It is not without some sorrow that we both retire at the end of the 2009 school year. Through the thick and thin, the good and bad, and all the ups and downs we have never questioned our decision to live and work in this community. We thank all of you that have made this journey memorable for us and our boys. We also want to thank all the students who have taught us so much. GO KAWS!"
