Dear Ottawa Elementary Community,

It is with great pride that I welcome you to the Fall issue of Visions141, our official quarterly magazine. As we enter this new season, we have so many reasons to celebrate, and in this issue, we shine a light on the incredible stories that make Ottawa Elementary School District 141 such a special place to learn and grow.

Inside these pages, you’ll meet educators, mentors, and specialists who are going above and beyond to make a lasting impact in the lives of our students. These dedicated professionals are not only teaching curriculum but also fostering a culture of care, perseverance, and inspiration that will benefit our children for years to come.

We are also proud to share the stories of several students who are overcoming challenges and demonstrating resilience in the face of obstacles. These young individuals are a testament to the strength, determination, and potential that we see in all of our students, and their stories are a powerful reminder of what is possible with the right support.

This magazine serves as both a reflection of the extraordinary work happening in our schools and a window for our community to see into the heart of what we do. It is a reminder that we have so much to be proud of in Ottawa Elementary, and we are excited to continue sharing these successes with you as we grow and thrive together.

Thank you for being part of our community and for your ongoing support of our students and staff. Together, we are shaping the future and making Ottawa Elementary a place where every student can succeed.

Sincerely,
Dr. Michelle Lee
Superintendent, Ottawa Elementary School District 141
