Thank you, Outgoing Board Members
Left: Janet Thayer; Right: Julie Yancey
It is with a mix of sadness and gratitude that we say thank you and goodbye to the two retiring KHSA Board Members, Julie Yancey and Janet Thayer. Both have been dedicated members engaging in spirited board discussions, strategic planning, expressing thanks and support to the KHSA staff, and being great ambassadors for KHSA and Head Start in their communities. Janet served as Treasurer and chair of the Finance Committee for two years. She worked with Claudia Kressig, Fiscal Manager, and Peggy Kelly, Executive Director, to develop and implement sound fiscal practices for the organization. Thank you and we look forward to seeing you down the trail. Thank you for continuing to carry the light of Head Start.
