Oak Creek PTA

Dedicated with love to
Mrs. Balogh and Mrs. Calkins -

For years, your guidance held the key
To the potential in young minds
You showed your students they could be
Successful members of mankind
You gave them, through your love and care
The greatest gift they could receive
You taught them how to work and share
But, most of all, how to believe.

Each child was like your very own
With different traits and styles
But, your direction set the tone
For their future, across the miles
Your students could not always see
The lessons you shared from the heart
Yet, as they reached their destiny
They understood you played a part.

For years, your wisdom touched your class
But, seasons change and hours fade
Your teaching days have come to pass
Though, not the difference you have made
You may be setting down your chalk
In favor of time in the sun
But, the minds you’ve helped to unlock
Shall validate the work you’ve done.

From the bottom of our hearts,
we thank you for all of your years of service...
and your kindness, warmth, laughter, and friendship.
