We are writing in recognition of Jane B. Cross, who after over 40 years in public education is retiring at the close of this school year. Jane is a born educator who has been a champion for her students from her years at Woolwich Central and Southport Central Schools through her more recent one-on-one work with English language learners in Bath, Phippsburg and Georgetown, and adult students in Boothbay Harbor.
We know her students, colleagues, and friends join us in congratulating her. Our family is proud of her service and excited for her to enjoy her well-earned retirement after a dignified and satisfying career.
