What’s New at Georgetown?

Within the past week, we have had two new additions to our front area.

In memory of Rhonda Fabbro, one of the most amazing staff members to care for our students, a maple tree was planted on the K/1 playground.  A few staff members and Fabbro family members were present for the planting ceremony (photos above).

The second addition is a “little lending library“.  This can be found at the front of our building.  It is designed for children to take a book to read (free) and for community members to share books they have read and want others to read.  This project was made possible by the Hudsonville High School wood shop (assembly), Parent Club Funds (equipment funding) and three talented custodian’s (painters and artists).  Many thanks to Aubrey Hoekstra, Elaina Nibblelink and Makaih Schuur for their painting talents!

And credit is also due to Mr. Rob, our most FANTASTIC CUSTODIAN, who prepared the playground for the tree (and supervised the planting) and made sure that the lending library was completed and installed.  Georgetown is amazing because of this man — he does more than anyone will ever know (at all hours of the day and night) to keep the building running, grounds beautiful and staff and students cared for.  Mr. Rob is also very humble — and a one of a kind person.  We are very lucky to have him!
