Alva Review-Courier -

The Cherokee Board of Education sadly accepted several resignations at its board meeting Monday, many of them from long-time teachers or staff.

Resignation letters were received from Kassie Hair, Shelly Burleson, Malari Cline, Cathy Parks, Patty Means, Cathy Graham and Ruth Richmond. The resignation letters were often moving, always referring to the deep affection the individual holds for Cherokee and the students and staff at the school. Some of those resigning are moving on to other school districts, while others have chosen to spend more time on other projects or with family.
