Some retirements are somber and some are worth celebrating.
This one was worth celebrating.
The Glenbrook High Schools District 225 board on May 10 resolved to "retire" its 2020-21 Learning and Operational Plan effective the last day of school, June 4.
Planned in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and subject to its ebbs and flows, it was a learning plan like no other.
"As I was reading through my notes over the weekend, I realized that we are now in our 14th month of our response to the pandemic. On some days it seems like it hasn't been that long, and other days it seems twice that long," said board Superintendent Dr. Charles Johns.
