Holiday Message, December 2020
Pandora’s Box and Hope
With 2020 ending I wanted to share some hope. I love to read and listen to books and one of my favorites is “The Last Lecture” written by Randy Pausch and Jeffery Zaslow where Randy Pausch talks about achieving his childhood dreams and what he learned of life. In one chapter he references Pandora’s Box, the Greek Myth where a person is put in charge of a magical box but given strict instructions not to open it. We all know the ending: curiosity wins out, the box is opened, and all forms of evil are released into the world. What many may not know or remember, including myself, is that at the bottom of the box was hope.
This is how I feel about the last year in our school, our community, our lives, and the world as a whole. During this pandemic we have dealt with many “evils” such as halting in-person school, classrooms and classes split for the safety of staff and students, shutting down of our economy, budget cuts to education, COVID related expenses burdening every school and family, and so many more. These are all real but I choose not to let these events shape my thoughts for the future. I choose to look at the bottom of Pandora’s Box. I choose hope.
Hope is all around us if we choose to look. Hope is over 100 volunteers rushing to our school to help extinguish the fire in our bus garage. Hope is the people and businesses that have donated food and gifts to so many of our families in need during the holidays. Hope is the Joshua Project that provided thousands of pounds of food to families in our community during the entire shutdown. Hope is the students, staff, families, board members, and community of the Gilboa-Conesville Central School District that have worked and continue to work tirelessly to keep our doors open for as much in- school instruction as possible. Hope is saying “The sun always shines in Gilboa” and knowing every day we can find that ray of sunshine in some form.
We are not out of this crisis and vigilance is still needed, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you for all you have done and continue to do to support our students. I wish everyone a healthy and safe holiday season, a New Year filled with happiness, and especially filled with hope.
Sincerely,
Jack Etter
Superintendent
Gilboa Conesville Central School District
