The teachers wrapping up their careers in the Pella Community School District are being recognized next week. Superintendent Greg Ebeling says a retirement open house will be held on Wednesday, May 18th from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. in the Pella High School east commons. Ebeling says it’s bittersweet to see so many educators leaving the district — many of whom accepted an early retirement package to assist the schools with a tight budget.
