Thank You to CWS Parent Association Lead Amie Duncan!

Amie Duncan receiving a thank-you gift from the CWS Parent Association.

"As we wrap up our month of faculty appreciation and our amazing 2024-25 school year, it seems timely and much deserved to also give a big shout out to our own Amie Duncan. 

She’s done so very much for our school, but specifically she’s moved mountains after the COVID days and rebuilt our Parent Association. And she’s done an amazing job at it. Amie does so much we don’t know when she rests or sleeps, but we’re hopeful that she’s now got some of that in her future. While she’s still a part of our lovely school and PA, she’s stepping back from her main leadership role. 

So, this is our thank you to her. Amie, thank you for teaching us that we can still have a PA. Thank you for all of your endless hours spent building up our community. We are inspired and are better because of you." — Maggie Jones, Incoming CWS President
