Dear Verona Faculty & Staff,
 
I would like to take a moment to thank each of you for all of your efforts over the past several months. We have undoubtedly dealt with unforeseen challenges in the current environment we are living in. Progress rarely follows a straight line, but as we press toward our forward motion, the path we lay out depends on all of us working together. You are dedicated to our student’s best interests at heart in our schools. I am proud of you for the progress we have made as we strive to meet the needs of our students, no matter how difficult the challenges that may come our way. 
 
The holidays mark a moment reserved for slowing down, enjoying moments with the people that matter most to us, giving to people in need, and time for expressing gratitude. On behalf of the Verona Board of Education, we wish you a happy holiday season filled with joy. Best wishes for a well deserved holiday break. Wishing you good cheer and a happy new year.
 
 
Sincerely,
 
 
Dr. Rui Dionisio
Superintendent of Schools
