The Ravens at East Middle finally surprised her (and we love that her own child did not even tell her what was happening)! "Happy Mrs. Bangham Appreciation Day" on this almost last day of Principal's Appreciation Month! We love you, and we are so incredibly grateful to have you as the leader in our nest.

A special thank you to all the staff and students who went out of their way to write notes of appreciation and/or wear pink and green today in honor of Mrs. Bangham's favorite colors. We also appreciate everyone's efforts to keep this a special surprise over the last few weeks as the plans were becoming realities.
