ESD 105 salutes the contributions and camaraderie of Dave Curry and Elma Rodriguez as they retire from our agency in August after making significant contributions to our region's schools during the past several years.

Dave Curry, ESD 105 chief fiscal officer, retires after a total of seven years with ESD 105.  Dave first joined ESD 105 as fiscal coordinator during the 2001-2002 school year before leaving to join the West Valley School District as assistant superintendent for Business Operations.  He returned to ESD 105 in September of 2004 as assistant superintendent of Fiscal Services, and has been heavily involved with the construction of the agency's new building during the past year.  His title was changed to chief financial officer in May of 2009.

Elma Rodriguez, a veteran presence with our Migrant Education Regional Office, has also had split periods of employment during her 19 years with the ESD.  She first joined MERO as an administrative secretary in January of 1989, then left us at the end of August 2006.  She returned to her former position the following January.

Thank you, Dave and Elma, for helping make a positive impact for our region's school employees and students, and for your colleagues at ESD 105!
