Dear Colleagues,

I hope you know how grateful Melodie, David, and I are to work in partnership with all of you. Our mission is bold and of course we know this is a challenging year, but with hard and smart work, and a collaborative and grateful spirit, we will get it done. I am full speed ahead with The Whelan Group,  so you will be hearing from us!

Have a blessed and beautiful Thanksgiving with those you love.

In hope and confidence,

Mary Claire    PS - notice NY mailing address below.

Subject: Thank You

Dear fellow board members,

As we head into the Thanksgiving holiday, I wanted to thank all of you for time and commitment to the National NativityMiguel Network of Schools.  I realize that the last 6 months have been a time of great change and challenge for all of us as you have committed to your continued work with Mary Claire.

As a short update I have personally spent time with David Kubacki and Melodie Wyttenbach and can tell you that both of them are extremely excited about the direction and focus that came from our time together as a board several weeks ago.  I will also share with you as Mary Claire and I have been in touch a great deal, the energy she feels from your support has been tremendously timely as what we refer to as “restart” is officially underway with all offices moved to NYC last week.

Please keep the Network on your minds as we approach the end of the year and please feel free to share with myself or Mary Claire any thoughts or suggestions you may have leading up to our next board meeting.

Enjoy this wonderful time with your families and loved ones.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Bill
