Dear Colleagues,
Happy Teachers’ Day! I would like to thank you warmly and with appreciation for all your efforts and hard work over the past years, through the many troubles, difficulties, which we have faced. You have continued to give your best for the students, and made personal sacrifices often to do so. Many of you have gone the extra mile to ensure that the students’ needs are fully addressed, that their difficulties are understood, and that they can still accomplish as if they had been on the school campus all along! It has been tough, but you have kept going as we must all continue to do. I salute you and hope and pray that the year ahead will be a better one for us all.
I am continuously impressed with the amount of time and energy the staff puts into making sure all students at PIS Chakan are successful!
