Welcome to this edition of DoDEA News in a Minute. I'm your host Andrew Holloway. Marilee Fitzgerald, the director of the Department of Defense Education Activity, is retiring after 40 years of service in the federal government. Of those 40 years, 25 have been with DoDEA where she has created a lasting legacy. In her time with DoDEA Ms. Fitzgerald has worked hard to ensure the success of all students by helping educate, engage, and empower each of them to succeed in a dynamic and ever-changing world. I would say to everyone, in every position that we hold in DoDEA that every single moment of our enrgy when we are doing the work that we need to do, there's only one focus, and that foucs is on the children Providing them the absolute the best learning experience possible. We ought not be average at it, we ought to be just as our stratigic plan says, we are the best in the world at doing this. Fitzgerald will officially leave DoDEA in late October. She said upon retirement she plans on spending more time with her family and hopes to continue her efforts in the field of education as well as continue working with the military. Thanks for watching this edition of DoDEA News in a Minute.
