Dear Cache Families,


December always brings a chance to pause and appreciate the good happening in our schools. I’m grateful for our students, families, and staff who continue to support one another and keep our focus on learning and growth.


This time of year can be busy, so I hope everyone can find moments to rest, connect, and enjoy the season. The small things—kind words, helping hands, and everyday wins in our classrooms—are what make our district a great place to be.


Thank you for your support and partnership. I wish you and your family a warm, safe, and relaxing holiday season.


Warmly,

Dr. Todd McKee
