Dear Friends, Colleagues, Former Students, and General Enthusiasts of Persis Andrews,
The day has finally come: Persis has announced her retirement from teaching at the end of this school year. She is a Barrie School legend and will be sorely missed! We are collecting written material from you to create a physical book for her.
Please send us your tribute to Persis by this Friday, May 14. It can be a memory, a poem, or a simple thank-you. Handwritten materials would be particularly appreciated but are not necessary. Your tribute may be as long or as short as you see fit. Persis herself is the audience. Please don't mention this project to her! However, please feel free to share this request widely through your personal and social networks. If you are a parent of a former Barrie School student, please pass this along to your child(ren)! We need everything by this Friday!
Please mail items to: Wendy Granier Barrie School 13500 Layhill Rd Silver Spring, MD 20906
OR email your sentiments to:
Wendy Granier at wgranier@barrie.org Again, if you are aware of anyone who should have received this note but didn't, feel free to pass it along. There may be Barrie alumni etc. whose email addresses we've missed.
Thank you all!
