And a good evening to you!

The winners of the Crystal Apples, bestowed on nominees from various units of the Salem-Keizer School District, will be announced soon and we’ll bring you the complete list.

Our managing editor, Rachel Alexander, profiled some of the nominees and we’re sharing their stories this week. They give you good insight into the people working to educate our kids and keep schools running.
