PARENT-TO-STAFF: "I have a shining star at WLS to highlight! I wanted to share how impressed I am with my daughter's science teacher at Washington, Ahren Jacobs. Recently, he took time to participate in an IEP team meeting and was so helpful; he answered my questions thoroughly. He helped me understand the areas she is doing well and where she could use extra support. My daughter’s disability challenges her to feel comfortable speaking in a group. Mr. Jacobs shared an example that she raised her hand in class to answer a question that none of the other students knew. He was so proud and complimentary towards her for sharing her knowledge with the class and coming out of her comfort zone. Thank you Mr. Jacobs for the gentleness and compassion you have provided to my daughter. I am very grateful that you are her teacher!" Making students feel comfortable and empowered = Way to go, Mr. Jacobs! 😊

STAFF SHOUT: "Tommy Broyles, Todd Wozniak, Brittanie Brillhart are lifesavers! Not only are these 3 great mechanics, they also drive routes when we are short. They willingly drive for field trips, to supplement our bus drivers, ensuring kiddos get to their sporting events. I appreciate these 3 so much! It takes everyone to make everything work and we are so grateful to them." Awesome! Thank you so much for all of your work!

STAFF-TO-STAFF SHOUTOUT: "Leighann Schroyer, or Miss Leighann as we call her, is a rockstar paraprofessional! Over the last three years she has worked with kindergarten students, taking the time to truly learn students and find the best ways to provide academic and behavior support. As a member of Meadowvale's Parent Club, Miss Leighann took on the task of researching, getting price quotes, and getting a company out here to get Meadowvale a new school sign! Regardless of her role, Miss Leighann can be counted on to provide support to students, families, staff, and the school as a role. We appreciate her for all she does!" And that new sign looks fabulous! Thank you Ms. Schroyer for all you do!

STAFF-TO-STAFF SHOUTOUT: "Mary Miller (Stadium Mary) from Whitmer is ALWAYS so kind and makes even the littlest fans/visitors of the stadium feel welcomed and special. She does so much for the stadium and the sports around campus with a big smile, and she deserves recognition. She is always asking how she can make things easier for others and is one of the big reasons things run so smoothly at the stadium and on campus. So, the next time you see Mary, cutting grass, beautifying campus, emptying trash, opening/closing buildings, or any of the other tasks she conquers on the daily, give her a big thank you! She is very special to this district." We are so grateful for the MAGIC that our Stadium Cinderella provides! We adore you, Mary!

PARENT-TO-STAFF and STAFF-TO-STAFF SHOUT: *The first is a shout out from a grandparent "I want everyone to know what an amazing person Ms. Wietrzykowski at Whitmer High School is. I have two grandchildren at Whitmer who are currently going through some very difficult times, and Ms. Wietro goes above and beyond to ensure they are taken care of. I know they are safe and loved when they are at school, and they know they have a safe adult that they can go to anytime. Ms. Wietro treats my grandchildren like family. That is especially needed and important to them right now with what they are dealing with at home. I can't say thank you enough to her for looking out for my grandchildren, and providing them with the extra care and attention they need." *The second is a shout out from a staff member "I would like to give a super shout out to Whitmer's Associate Principal, Mrs. Wietrzykowski! She consistently shows dedication and love for all the students at Whitmer and makes sure everyone feels welcomed and safe. Even on her busiest days she finds time to stop what she is doing to check in on students and staff. I have witnessed on numerous occasions her checking in on an incoming freshman, who was extremely nervous just so she could make it through the day while enjoying her high school experience. I appreciate your kindness and know you do make a difference!" There is no greater endorsement in education than one saying, "My child feels safe with you." Way to go, Ms.Wietro!
