Mr. Jennings has served our school community for the past 43 years. As he has elected to retire, pending Board approval, I wish to thank him for his dedication to our community and for his many accomplishments. While the reason for his retirement is entirely his own, he will always be a member of our school community, is always welcome within our walls, and should be extremely proud of his career. Please join me in thanking him for his service and wishing him the best as he moves on to the next chapter of his life. Additionally, let’s also give Mr. Rhode as much support as possible as he serves to lead Bremen High School during this time of transition and fill some very large footprints.
Dr. Jim White
Proud Superintendent
