Last week, the Ithaca second grade class had the opportunity to enjoy Circus World Museum.
Today we honor the retirement of Chuck Keller from CESA 3 - thanks to the folks at CESA 3 for providing this info. Ithaca and its students benefited immensely from working with Mr. Keller.
As Chuck Keller retires, we honor his dedication to transforming education in Southwest Wisconsin. Over the past eight years, Chuck led a coalition of industry leaders, educators, and state agencies to ensure every student graduates career and life-ready. Under his leadership, the Youth Apprenticeship program expanded from 117 students to 559!
Chuck and his wife will soon retire together, ready to travel the U.S. and Canada in their new camper van. They look forward to spontaneous adventures and quality time with their adult children.
Chuck will miss the excitement of working with teachers and students and the personal relationships he's built over the years. Ithaca will most certainly miss Mr. Keller.
