To Devone,
For his enthusiastic leadership and for helping our dept. dig itself out of a fiscal pit. You guided us to be more fiscally responsible but always in a positive, upbeat way. We will miss you!

To Jill Stone,

Congratulations on your appointment to the International Society for E=Technology in Education (ISTE) E-Rate Group. Jill provided valuable advice and information that ISTE will use in developing its position for the FCC and House and Senate in Washington D.C.

To Jill,

For her battle with the FCC regarding Franklin Pierce SD's E-Rate funding. She must appear to be SUPERWOMAN to FPSD, coming to their rescue twice - in  helping to get awards totaling $183,000 and in winning the appeal where the FCC wanted $314,444.53 back! Jill to the rescue!!

- Janet


To Jill,
Congrats on your participation with ISTE E-Rate task force resulting in your comments being presented to our State Senator.

-Tom
