PARENT SHOUT:

"Diana Cicerella (Greenwood) has taught all 5 of my children and is now teaching (or has taught) several of my grandchildren! She has made music education enjoyable and taken the time to make sure students understand and enjoy the fundamentals of music! She forms unbreakable bonds with her students that keep going past graduation! She's a top notch teacher."

Top notch educator? That sounds exactly right! ​

PARENT SHOUT:

"Mrs. Re (McGregor) is an advocate for her students and creates an environment in which they feel safe. She is genuine and truly loves her students. Our daughter has neurodivergent needs and she is being met with consistent grace and sincerity, while her needs are ever changing. We are grateful to have her as our child’s 1st grade teacher. Thank you Mrs. Re for being such a bright light in a challenging world."

Knowing that your child is being handled with care and grace is ALL parents want and Ms. Re is such a STAR at this!

STUDENT SHOUT:

"I would like to shout out my favorite teacher Mr. Hunter. He has always been nice and just a fun teacher overall. He's funny and makes the whole class laugh all the time. He just makes my day better and I want him to know we all appreciate him."

"He makes my day better." -- Is there a better compliment for ANYONE?

STUDENT to STAFF SHOUT:

"Mrs. Schober (Science, Washington) was always a fun teacher and there was rarely a day you wouldn’t see her being her bright talkative self. I’ve always seen teachers be “clean aesthetic” but she shows you can show your love for horror and your nerdy comics and love your own type of music!"

Teaching children that it's okay to be authentic; what a gift Ms. Schober gives her kids!

PARENT-to-STAFF SHOUT:

"This Saturday my son Andrew had a hockey game at the Huntington Center and he had requested I let his teacher Miss Browder (Meadowvale) know and asked that I invite her. He also asked that I invite his 2nd grade teacher Mrs.Hetzel, who has retired. Both of them showed up on this very cold day. They cheered him on and he was so excited when he saw them in the stands. Both of these amazing women go above and beyond. Andrew was so excited he had such a large cheering section and said it was the reason his team won 4-3 against a team that had beat them before this season."

Stories like these are so heart-warming, and lucky for us, they're also common in WLS from our FABULOUS staff!

STUDENT SHOUT:

"​I’m now a freshman but in 7th and 8th Corrine Jaco was my favorite teacher. I felt she explained everything so much better than anyone would have ever could. And if it wasn’t for her class I wouldn’t have ever read 'A Child Called It.' She genuinely made my days brighter and even when she was overwhelmed she would still help us and be the fun teacher she was."

Taking the time to show gratitude for a teacher (as a freshman) shows just how wonderful Ms. Jaco is!

"Mrs. Knaggs (Whitmer) has been my history teacher for 2 years now and she never lets her students down, she provides snacks if people get hungry, makes people feel comfortable, and overall just a very fun teacher. Thanks for all the help you’ve given us Mrs. Knaggs, you deserve this shout out!"

Ms. Knaggs is kind, knowledgeable and FUN - a triple threat to all who know her!

Staff Shout-Out for Meadowvale Elementary:

"I want to take a moment to give a heartfelt thank-you to the incredible staff at Meadowvale Elementary. The love, generosity, and support you have shown my family during my surgery and recovery has meant more than I can ever put into words.

From organizing meals through the meal train, to helping ensure my kids got home safely, to checking in, offering encouragement, and lifting us up during a difficult season — your kindness has truly touched our hearts. You didn’t just support a coworker; you supported a family, and we will never forget that.

Meadowvale is special because of the people in it — compassionate, selfless, and always willing to step up for one another. I am so grateful to work alongside such an amazing team, and so thankful for each of you.

Thank you for your care, your generosity, your prayers, your love, and your unwavering support during my healing journey. I am blessed beyond measure."

Co-workers can become a family and this one sure took care of their Eagle!

The Kindness Club at Monac (can we just applaud THAT for a moment?!) collaborated with Biggby Coffee (Talmadge/Sylvania) to decorate 200 coffee sleeves for The Great Kindness Challenge this week. The Club even brought Monac staff goody bags and hosted a school-wide Spirit Week for everyone!

Our little people will change the world. 💖
