 Our "Thank a Comet" website feature allows you to write a thank you note to a Cardinal student, staff member, parent, or community member. 

We've collected all of the thank you notes we received this month (and that we have permission to share) here in this post. Enjoy!


Person to Thank
Althea Schoonover

Thank You Note

I would like to thank everyone who has helped my granddaughter, Madison, become the girl she is. Also, Althea Schoonover, who has helped her throughout her school days and special events. There is a true bond between the two. She helps her push herself to do her best and expects her to do what is asked. For a grandmother I appreciate knowing she is not only keeping her safe, but also cares for her as her own family. Thank you!

- Teresa Ross

- Mrs. Pope

My real endorsement of Cardinal Schools and its faculty and staff can be seen each morning when I hand them the one irreplaceable and most valuable thing in my life: my kids. No letter I write could be a greater endorsement than that simple act. I give them my kids, and I do it with a huge smile on my face because I trust them to do what they are most outstanding at: building our future.
