May 18 was Speech Pathologist Appreciation Day and boy do we appreciate Mrs. Shelly Williams! If you've had the pleasure of having Mrs. Williams teach your child, you know she is patient, kind and a wealth of knowledge. She does so much more than speech and is truly an expert in her field. Mrs. Williams, a Facebook post doesn't begin to touch how much we appreciate you and everything you do for our students!
We couldn't end Mental Health Awareness Week without recognizing our mental health counselors, Mrs. Katy Shepard and Mrs. Nikki Aducci. Their work often goes unseen to the public, but is so valuable to our students. They work tirelessly to serve our student body and we are so lucky to have them on our team!
Please note the dates for 5-8th grade. Monday, May 20 and Tuesday, May 21st.
