Dr. Dutzi came to Holmes Middle School in the middle of the year to help with a difficult situation. Not an easy job. She stepped in and made every effort to keep things as normal as possible. I would personally like to mention the support that she gave to me and the Holmes Forensics Program. After a meet was over, she grabbed a mop and helped me clean the cafeteria floor and put everything back together. I value her short stay at Holmes.

Ruth was may all time favorite principal at Mann. She always supported us and inspired us to give our students the best education. She accepted my Deaf and Hard of Hearing students with open arms and took my sign language to show her support to my students. Ruth was also one of my instructors at the University of Phoenix while getting my Masters, which was very special. She was truly a wonderful educator and friend and will be missed.
