Jessica Kornhausl HR Manager East Penn School District Administrative Offices 800 Pine Street Emmaus, PA 18049

Dear Ms. Kornhausl,

I am submitting my resignation from the position I currently hold as an instructional assistant at Willow Lane Elementary School, effective immediately.

It has truly been a pleasure to serve the students and families of Willow Lane. During my time at Willow Lane, I grew professionally under the leadership and guidance of Tanya Spengler, special education teacher. She demonstrated outstanding special education teaching techniques that I was then able to apply daily in my work as an instructional assistant.

I am respectfully requesting to be considered for a substitute teacher position in the East Penn School District. This will allow me to maintain employment in the school district and meet my family obligations. I currently hold an active elementary teaching certificate.

I am extremely grateful for the opportunity I had to work as an instructional assistant at Willow Lane Elementary School and hope to continue serving the school district in a new role.

Sincerely,

June A. Rodriguez-Ashmar

Dr. J. Michael Schilder Superintendent of Schools East Penn School District 800 Pine St. Emmaus, PA 18049

Dear Dr. Schilder:

EXHIBIT #2

I hereby request the Board's approval of my application for the Retention Incentive Program in Board

Policy 350.1, as it exists on the date of this letter. If approved, I tender my resignation for the purpose

of retirement effective January 22, 2016.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the Board of Directors of East Penn School District

for the opportunity to work in a school district that values education and tries to do what is best for

students, parents, staff and community. In December, I wi ll have worked in the East Penn School

District for 35 years . Most of the Board members over the years have been caring individuals and very

supportive of education. The administrators that I have worked for have been wonderful mentors and I

am very grateful to each of them for sharing their knowledge with me and always being very supportive.

The building and central office administrators, teachers, tax collectors, custodians and other support

staff have been very friendly and cooperative. The employees that I worked with and those who I

supervised in the Business Office were very hard-working, caring, dedicated and loyal. They are critical

to the operation of the district and I am very proud of their hard work.

I am very fortunate to have been able to work with all of these wonderful people in an environment

where we all worked together to perform our jobs to the best of our abilities. East Penn is an

outstanding school district and I truly feel privileged to have worked here for so long. I will miss the

people that I worked with over these many years. I wish only the best for the East Penn School District

and the East Penn community.

Sincerely,

'0J~.~~ Debra A. Surdoval Business Manager and Treasurer
