**ELITE STAFF SHOUT OUT**
The Schaller-Crestland district is losing one of a kind! Tami has been so much more than the person behind the meals—she has been a steady source of kindness, positivity, and encouragement for everyone who walked through the lunch line. Her warm smile, fun spirit, and genuine care for others made our school a better place every single day.
Tami, thank you for the countless ways you’ve supported our students and lifted up our staff. You will be deeply missed, but we are so excited for this next chapter in your life. Wishing you all the joy and relaxation you deserve during retirement! 💙
