Thank you so much to Rick Holmes and consumer driven technologies for all the work that they put in the summer to get all of our technology ready to work for the students on the first day of school. There is so much that goes into getting our network and technology ready. We also welcome one of Valentine's own, Reese Rivera, for being a part of consumer driven technologies and being Rick's sidekick. He's been a tremendous addition.
