Here’s what Darien High School Principal Ellen Dunn told the school’s students in an announcement Wednesday morning about Thanksgiving and the Turkey Bowl: Have fun and remember that you’re a role model for those younger than you. She shared the text of her announcement with DHS parents in an email. Here’s what she said:

I want to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving from the entire DHS family to yours.  I would also like to share the announcement I made a few moments ago about the Turkey Bowl tomorrow. Good morning, DHS

Thanksgiving is such a beautiful holiday when life pauses and we take a moment to reflect on all for which we are grateful.  For me, it is an opportunity to give thanks for the exceptional faculty and staff at DHS who dedicate themselves to seeing that you reach your full potential and that you are prepared, when you leave us, to follow every dream. I am also thankful for all of you.  You brighten our days with your positive energy.  You work hard to reach every expectation we set for you and you challenge us to be the best we can be.
