Sodexho Making Every Day a Better Day

Saturday night Sodexho, http://www.sodexousa.com/, hosted an eventful evening of tasty international foods, cool beverages, and incredible music. Lorna Donatone, President of Sodexho, thanked her Sodexho staff for their hard work all year. She also thanked the B.B. King’s Blues Club staff for making it a night to remember.

B.B. King’s all-star band featured eleven musicians who played the blues, Motown, R & B, and classic rock. (http://orlando.bbkingclubs.com/)They were incredible! It was a lively evening for school board members, superintendents, spouses, and Sodexho employees to celebrate at Pointe Orlando. I wish I could include some of the music to share with you.

Sodexho states, “Our goal is to drive greater satisfaction. Every day. Meeting our global responsibilities and the needs of our communities and our world is a part of who we are. Diversity and inclusion, sustainability, wellness, and fighting hunger are fundamental to our commitment to making every day a better day for us all.”

They certainly satisfied many attendees at NSBA’s 68th Annual Conference in Orlando. Thanks, Lorna!

Meeting new Friends is a Convention Highlight

One of the best parts of coming to an NSBA convention is meeting board members, superintendents, and family members from other areas. In just a few minutes, you can learn a lot aboout school districts in other parts of the country. It helps make the bus rides or waiting in line more enjoyable. Since arriviing at noon yesterday, I've met some fantastic folks from Texas, Indiana, Maryland, Missouri, New Mexico, Alabama, and even Florida. I'd like to meet folks from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and any US Possessions. We have many common problems, but we also have a common goal, 'improving the education of our nation's children'.
