October Thank Yous

posted November 1, 2026

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!

I always see Tara using her all and giving 100%. She always comes in pumped up and ready to help all of the students. She jumps in when needed and never has a complaint. She is such a hard-working individual. Thank you, Tara, for being the best!
