THIS STAFF MEMBER RECEIVED SHOUTS FROM 3 SEPARATE STUDENTS!

1. Mr. Ruiz is one lovable individual, he's always there for his students and tells them what they need to hear. When needed Mr. Ruiz is always willing to lend a helping hand , he's always willing to listen to someone's day or help when someone is feeling down.He always brings a smile to a room whilst also helping students with his work. He is a loving human who has always wanted to share his love with others. Mr Ruiz has helped many of me and my friends so much. Forever grateful and he's made a huge impact on lots of individuals.

2. Mr.Ruiz is one of the reasons that I made it through middle school. He made me feel better every time I was upset or having a horrible day. I would tell him all of my problems and drama and he would give me so much good advice and he just made every day an amazing day. He would always compliment my outfits and hair and that made me have a good day. He is just an amazing teacher and so many people can say the same thing. Thank you so much Mr.Ruiz, I honestly don't know what I would've done without you to help me.

3. He always brings a great and positive attitude and always has a bright smile. Always brings the vibes.

Their words say it all! We love our supportive staff!​

"This guy, this guy right here has brought so much to our ELL community. Tim Hurst walked into a job with so many unknowns and has changed the English Language Learning community of WLS in a very short time. His love for our kids and passion to help our staff is everything. He does it with such great strength and dedication. We are lucky to have him!"

Mr. Hurst has a heart for kids and it shows in everything he does! WLS scored big with the great hire!

STAFF SHOUT:

"I HAVE to shout out the amazing counselors at Shoreland. Mrs. Harris is tried and true, and Mrs. Cheeks is new to us this year, but has fit right in as a vital piece of our puzzle. Our students love them and so do our staff. Empathy, patience, flexibility, and teamwork are only a few of the things that describe these amazing ladies. Shoreland is beyond lucky to have them! ♥️"

This duo provides so much love to our Firebird family. We cannot thank them enough!

PARENT SHOUT:

"Last year Ms. Adams (Silver Creek) got pied, but this year it was Mr. Kahl's turn! Shout out to Kahl for agreeing to let the top 3 fundraiser sellers pie him in the face. The kids absolutely loved it and were so excited to see him get pied 3x at one assembly & then 3 more for the 2nd assembly. Silver Creek is lucky to have him! Thank you from the parent club :)"

Kids never forget adults who give them joyful memories! Way to go, Mr. Kahl!

STAFF SHOUT:
"I want to give a shout out to my amazing co-worker, Sofia Lopez, who has been such a source of support during my first year as an Intervention Specialist at Whitmer High School. She consistently checks in to make sure everything is going well and is always willing to offer help or guidance whenever I need it. Her kindness and thoughtfulness have truly made a difference, and I am so grateful to have someone like her as part of my team!"

Sofia Lopez would be a rockstar anyplace she chose to work; we are SO LUCKY she chose WLS!

STUDENT TO STAFF SHOUT:

"Mr. Tom Lapoint (Whitmer math) is a great teacher because he goes beyond just teaching a lesson. He takes the time to build real, personal relationships with his students. His ability to connect with us makes the classroom feel comfortable and supportive, which makes it so much easier to focus and do our best work. He genuinely listens and cares about what’s going on in our lives, and that makes us want to show up and put in the effort. Because of the respect and understanding he shows, his class doesn’t just feel like school, it feels like a place where we’re valued and encouraged to grow. He notices when you’re off just by the look on your face and comforts you as soon as he notices, no matter what."

To see students as PEOPLE first is truly exemplifying "every student matters!"
