Educator of the Year TSD
I was honored with the classified Educator of the Year Award for the Thompson School District. I was a lead Custodian for Coyote Ridge Elementary.
I was so humbled by this recognition. I have the writeups from those who suggested i receive this award. All I did was show up everyday and did the best job i could. I mentored several students at the request of the principle. I mastered the 4 "Ps" ! (Potty , Poop, Puke and Principal.) which are really important during school time. Having parents tell me they used me to get their kids to get up and to school. Being invited and attending over 50 high school graduations from my kiddos was really thanks enough. I can teach and model these fun attributes custodians can bring to their school.
