For LOLHS, we are are bidding farewell to three beloved wildcats: Glynis Houde, Leslie O'Connor and Billy Rayder. Glynis Houde, School Counseling Office Admin AssistantIt is an honor to stand before you today as we celebrate the remarkable 18-year career of our beloved high school counseling office manager, Glynis Houde. For nearly two decades, Glynis has been the cornerstone of our counseling office. A high school counseling office is busier than the runway at JFK. It takes a special person to manage three counselors, transcripts, grades, scholarships, awards ceremonies, college applications, graduation planning, and family registrations, while also being the calm in the storm and the friendly face to students in times of stress. Her dedication, compassion, and unwavering commitment to our students and staff have made a lasting impact on countless lives. Her warmth and kindness have created a welcoming environment where students feel supported and understood. Glynis’ exceptional organizational skills and attention to detail have ensured that every aspect of the counseling office runs with efficiency and accuracy. When I ask Glynis to handle a project, her usual response is, “I already did it.” Beyond her professional contributions, Glynis has been a cherished colleague and friend. Her positive attitude and willingness to go the extra mile have enriched our school community. Glynis is highly respected and loved by her colleagues, students, and families. As Glynis embarks on this new chapter of her life, we wish her joy, relaxation, and endless adventures. Her legacy of dedication and compassion will continue to inspire us. You will be deeply missed, but your impact will remain in our hearts forever. |
