Thank you to all of the wonderful educators who have given so much of yourselves to advance the lives of children and public education in Chesterfield County. It was my great pleasure and honor to recognize and celebrate you tonight. Please remember to take that moment every day to recognize and celebrate yourselves, because what you do truly IS the BEST* thing to do in this world (*apologies to doctors, nurses, civil engineers, and the U.S. Military).
Step 1: Take a Deep Breath.
Step 2: Come on, say it; "Man, I'm Good!"
Step 3: Deep Breath.
Special thanks to JoAnn Karsh for being our keynote and our inspiration. The impact you have had on this generation of advocates and leaders is immeasurable; each ripple in the pool leaving its own mark upon the shore in its own time. Thank you so much for agitating the water. We wish you continued happiness, wonder, and fulfillment on the next stage of your journey.
As I presided over the Rep Council for the final time tonight, I was reminded of two things: (A) We often allow ourselves to be defined by our 'whats' instead of our 'whys'; (2) We really shouldn't do that.

Thank you all for allowing me to lead this body for the last four years, and for sharing your whys as we tried to accomplish our whats. There's a lot more I could say, I'm just not sure how.
Thank you.
