December Volunteers of the Month | | |
Holly Anderson
Holly has been coming in weekly to facilitate a challenge reading group. This group is designed to challenge students who are working above grade level. Holly has created several binders for the novel studies she does with these challenge groups. These resources help other teachers facilitate similar challenge groups to ensure that our advanced students are being given opportunities to go above and beyond typical classroom expectations. Holly has put in many hours of work planning lessons, selecting novels and challenging students to work at their best level.
Britnie Corbett
Britnie oversaw the whole organization of second grades' Pioneer Day. In addition to that, she helps Mrs. Kempkes get ready for the week, lines up the parents to help out in the classroom, sends out email reminders to parents, and provides the weekly Snazzy Snacks.
Lita Lumis
Lita has been coming in for several years now. She makes copies and organizes files for Mr. Agee, Mr. Criger and Mr. Johnson. Lita has always been consistent, reliable, professional and cheerful.
CONGRATULATIONS HOLLY, BRITNIE AND LITA! |
| Reserved Parking | | |
Each month, we select three Volunteers of the Month. One of the perks as Volunteer of the Month is that they are assigned one of the designated Reserved Parking spaces. Although it may be tempting to park in one of these spaces, we ask that you leave them open for the person whose name is on the sign. |
