At Thorburn Education Center, the Business Unit added some sparkle to the season—and to their supervisors—during a beloved holiday teambuilding tradition. Staff from Finance, Medicaid, Facilities, and Pupil Accounting dressed up their bosses in imaginative holiday costumes and paraded through the building to share laughter, joy, and a moment of festive connection.
While the parade brought fun and flair, it also spotlighted the everyday impact of these vital teams.
Finance keeps budgets balanced and operations running smoothly.
Medicaid ensures students receive vital services with accuracy and care.
Facilities maintains safe, welcoming learning environments for all.
Pupil Accounting keeps enrollment and attendance data accurate and up to date.
Behind the scenes, these departments work year-round to support students, staff, and school communities across the region. Moments like this are a fun reminder to pause, connect, and celebrate the people who help make the magic happen.
