<div>Ms. Pickens,</div>
<div>I would like thank you for encouraging our students to reach for the stars on their Standardized Test. It was a great joy for me to witness someone who have made major accomplishments in their life &#8220;give back&#8221; to the community. The students, parents, and faculty and staff were truly mesmerized by speech. Keep up the good work, stay focused, and keep God first.</div>
