Thank you from Mr. Varner

As I prepare to take the next step on my journey, I find myself reflecting on the past 21 years with deep gratitude and emotion. It has truly been a privilege and a blessing to serve the OLC community, and I want to take this moment to thank you—from the bottom of my heart—for the unwavering support, trust, and partnership you’ve shown over the years.

You entrusted us with your most precious treasures—your children—and for that, I am forever grateful. Together, we have built more than a school community; we have built a family rooted in faith, compassion, and a shared commitment to nurturing the hearts, souls and minds of our students.

Looking back, I am incredibly proud of all that we have accomplished. The achievements, the challenges we’ve overcome, and the countless moments of growth and joy have shaped OLC into the vibrant, loving environment it is today. None of this would have been possible without your support and dedication.

Leaving is truly bittersweet. While I am excited for what lies ahead, a piece of my heart will always remain with OLC. This community has left an indelible mark on my life, and I will carry it with me always—in memory, in gratitude, and in prayer.

Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your children’s lives and for being an essential part of this journey. OLC will forever hold a special place in my heart.

With deepest thanks and blessings,

Mr. Varner
