Congratulations to Ms. Cathy Molen, our Red Apple recipient for the month of October and Mr. Josh Dively our support staff member of the month.
Ms. Molen loves helping students see their potential and building caring relationships with them throughout the school year. She also loves it when past students come by to pay a visit!
Mr. Dively enjoys introducing new books to the kids and hearing about the ones they like and why. He also enjoys helping kids have a better experience on a daily basis by assisting with their Chromebooks. These two professionals exemplify why our community is so fortunate in the care of the next generation of leaders.
