November Staff of the Month
I am thrilled to take this opportunity to recognize an exceptional member of our team, Mrs. Lori Ellis. Her hard work and dedication have not gone unnoticed, and it is time we celebrate her contributions.
Lori Ellis has been instrumental in organizing the Veteran's Day Assembly. While she receives help from students, much of the meticulous planning and behind-the-scenes work is courtesy of her relentless efforts. Additionally, her commitment to the Student Council and various school activities makes her a cornerstone of our community.
As one of the longest-serving teachers at our school, Lori embodies the true spirit of the Blue Devils. She consistently supervises student activities, attends, Education meetings, and balances her teaching responsibilities—all while maintaining a positive attitude.
Lori’s efforts extend beyond this month. Throughout the entire year, she drives initiatives such as the Rock-A-Thon to support kids in need and holds students accountable with kindness and consistency. Her wealth of knowledge is an invaluable resource for both students and staff.
Lori deserves this recognition for her unwavering dedication and passion for our school.
Let's fill the stands!
