Happy Administrative Professionals Day! Today highlights our group at Dixon Public Schools who fervently keep our buildings functioning every single day. They answer questions, keep things organized, and help students and staff. They are a key point of contact for our parents too. Their hard work keeps everything running smoothly, and it doesn’t go unnoticed. Thank you for being such an important part of DPS#170! #BePurple
