Flones Receives Super Send off During Opening Day

Flones Receives Super Send off During Opening Day

It was a sold out show Monday at the Wenatchee School District’s Opening Day. Kicking off the morning, staff crowded the Wenatchee High School Commons for a continental breakfast and community resource fair before filing into the auditorium for a welcome address from retiring Superintendent Brian Flones. At the end of the 2018-2019 school year Flones will conclude 20 years of service as Wenatchee’s Superintendent. “I’m proud and honored to have been your superintendent and I’m going to spend the next several months getting out into your buildings to thank you for what you do for our kids,” Flones said.

At the conclusion of the staff presentation, Wenatchee Education Association President Kris Cameron and Wenatchee High School teacher Adam MacDonald thanked Flones for his service and presented him with a “Farewell Tour” t-shirt stylized with the look of an AC/DC concert. After accepting the shirt Flones was doused with a cooler of confetti by WenEA members while the audience stood for an ovation and held up signs that said “We Love You” and “UR The Best".

Opening Day is the only time when all District staff are in the same place at one time. “We couldn’t let Brian get away without a proper send send off, ” said Cameron. We really wanted to make sure he knows how much we care about him and are grateful for his leadership— We’ll miss him.
