Fun Zone day at LEAP
Andrew School Community,
With great sadness, we are needing to inform you of the death of Missy Strodtman, our school’s head cook. Missy passed away completely unexpectedly yesterday, February 19.
Missy provided our students with so much more than just delicious and healthy meals. She went above and beyond every day to build relationships with our kids. She always knew just what to do to make a student smile or cheer them up if they were down. She embodied what our school is all about. Missy was loved by staff and students, alike.
Missy’s services will be held this Thursday, February 23 at the Shultz Funeral Home in DeWitt. The family will greet friends and relatives from 2 pm - 4:45 pm with a memorial service to follow at 5 pm. More information can be found at https://www.schultzfuneralhomes.com/.
To allow staff, students, and families to attend the service the Andrew School will be having a 1:30 pm early dismissal this Thursday with no after school programming (LEAP) on this day.
We encourage parents and families to speak to their children about Missy’s death, as she was an important part of our kids' experience in school. The school will have additional counseling services and supports in place to help our students grieve through this difficult time. Please continue to send your thoughts and prayers for Missy and all of her family and loved ones. The Andrew School community will miss her dearly.
