Natalie Cowley named director of language services for Carthage R-9


(From the Carthage R-9 School District)

We’re proud to announce that Natalie Cowley has been selected as the new Director of Language Services!

Natalie brings more than a decade of experience in bilingual education, dual language programs, and student support. Most recently, she served as a principal in Illinois, leading a K–3 dual language school, and her earlier work in rural Alaska helped shape her people‑first, community‑centered approach to education.

She will succeed longtime leader Jana Sawyer, who is retiring after more than 30 years of service. We are deeply grateful for the incredible foundation she built for Carthage students and families.

We need to Stop, with this Bilingual anything in America - It Costs our Country Billions of Dollars to support Spanish from the Government, Businesses, and Schools - Oh for the day when there wasn't - Press-1 for English and Press-2 for Spanish - When English was the only Language used. Again, why should we continual have to use hardworking taxpayers' money to support these things - If you want to live in America - Learn to Speak, Read, and Write - English! SIMPLE!!!

2:40 you a correct!
Some lib is gonna call you a Nazi…. What a delusional miserable life they must live. Oh if these other countries are so damn good why are you in ours trying to turn it into the place you ran away from.

Thank you for calling said...

Press 1 if you are already a patient at our practice.

Press 2 for billing questions.

Press 3 to make an appointment if you want to change or cancel an appointment you already have.

Press 4 if you are a medical professional or with an insurance company.

Press 6 if you are the PPPP. You will be given the address of several of the nearest Burger Kings so you can go there where you can have it your way. If they will let you. We refuse to allow people like the PPPP to aggravate our employees and waste any more of their time with your PPPP right wing ranting!

I agree with the comment at 3:53.

Comment at 2:20 could from a Nazi.

It also could be from the planet Uranus.

That's right!

Stick to jokes about how people choose to look.

Also complaining that it's only machines that answer the phones anymore.

Like that will help bring back the 1850s.

It's probably been since forever that anyone told the PPPP to "Blow it out your &^%$" and slammed the phone down so hard the PPPP's hearing aid had a seizure. Those days aren't coming back. No matter who we vote for.
