Bradley, IlliDois - As the 2013-2014 school year winds down, Bradley Elementary
School District #61 says good-bye to several long-time employees.

Retiring at the end of the year are David Sproat who has been a 7'*' grade Social Sciences
teacher with the District for the past 36 years, Mark Vieceli who retires after 33 years as
an Art teacher at Bradley Central, 28-year veteran Special Education teacher Ruth
Reynolds, 29-year Bradley East Custodian Eldon Childs and Pat Frels who has been with
the District 24 years as secretary at East.

"We're going to miss each of our retirees and the experience they brought to our District",
said Superintendent Dr. Scott Goselin, "but we're excited for what the next chapter of
their lives might hold for them".

Due to school cancellations over the winter, the last day of school this year is June 9*^.
