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
Mr. C

Thank You Note

I really enjoy Mr C's class. He is a great teacher and really helps me understand biology. He makes class quite the fun time and though we often go back and forth, it always ends with a smile.

Thank You Note

You are always so nice and friendly and you are easy to talk to. I enjoy seeing you in the hallways and by the office in the morning. You made 7th hour great last semester. You are just a really awesome person and I'm gonna miss you when you leave :3

Person to Thank
Mr. Coble

Thank You Note

I really appreciate when you go above and beyond for us students, you do anything you can to make us have fun but also learn. Yes you are a very serious teacher but you are just helping us with what it's going to be like in the real world. Thank you for always being there for me and letting me come in after school, to catch up or for you to help me study, It means so much more than you think. :)

Person to Thank
Ms. Smart

Thank You Note

This thank you note is to appreciate one of the hardest workers in the building. She has always been one of the bright spots in the school. It helps alot when you go to the office and Ms Smart is there because you know that she can brighten up your mood whether you are stressed or just not having it that day. Thank you Ms Smart and ALL of us appreciate you!

Person to Thank
JR Zietler

Thank You Note

I have watched Mr. Zietler coaching middle school boys’ sports, and it was so heartwarming to observe his caring dedication to supporting the boys’ attempts and improvements. He was continually fully involved during games and events, noticing times to give praise, high fives, or motivating shouts to let boys know he recognized their efforts. When a teachable moment occurred, he spoke to or demonstrated for the boy what or how to improve right then when they would be most likely to absorb the guidance. His genuine enthusiasm in building their skills and celebrating successes, provided what is most important: pride and self-esteem. Thank you, Mr. Zietler, for coaching the boys with such attentiveness and consideration for their sports and personal growth. You are very much appreciated!
