Farewell from Mr. Hitzges |

Time to go...
Parents, Students and Community of NJES: It is with great sadness that I am informing you that as of the Board of Education meeting on April 26th, I will be moving to the position of Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Information Systems. My transition date is set for June 1st.
I have had the good fortune to be the principal at North Jackson Elementary over the last year and a half and I have learned a great deal. There are so many faculty, parents and students that I have grown to love, even in my relatively brief time here. Frankly, North Jackson is a great place.
Many times in our lives we come to crossroads and decisions are not always easy. The fact of the matter is that I will be sad to leave, but this is the road that I must travel. I appreciate all of the support that I have received while at NJES and will hold many memories near and dear to my heart. My hope is that our paths cross again and that I see ALL of our students walk across the JCCHS stage for graduation. That will be the ultimate reward.
I wish North Jackson Elementary School nothing but the best. Thank you for letting me become part of this family!
Warm wishes,
Jamie Hitzges
