🎉 STAFF SPOTLIGHT & BITTERSWEET FAREWELL 🎉
Today, we are honoring a true legend in our Child Nutrition family: Bonnie Munson! 💛
After an incredible 44 years of dedicated service to our district’s students and community, Bonnie officially retired at the end of this school year. To say she has done it all is an understatement—Bonnie has worked in almost every single capacity our child nutrition program offers!
She has brought smiles to so many schools across the district over the decades. Most notably, she served as the beloved kitchen manager at James Madison for a long time up until its closing, and she wrapped up her amazing career spending her last few years cooking up love for the students at Lincoln.
Beyond the kitchen, Bonnie has been a vibrant, active member of the School Nutrition Association (SNA). Anyone who has been to a conference with her knows that if there is live music playing, you can find Bonnie absolutely boogeying down on the dance floor! 💃🎵
Bonnie, you have been an absolute joy, a pillar of our team, and a bright spot in the days of thousands of students. We are going to miss your energy, your dedication, and your heart so much.
Thank you for 44 unforgettable years. Enjoy every bit of your well-deserved retirement—we hope it’s filled with lots of rest, relaxation, and plenty of live music to dance to! 🥂✨
