Awesome Awards for November were presented at our Spring Creek Morning Meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 6th.
Mrs. Fisher awarded Mrs. Fernandez with a special message during the meeting...
"Stepping into a classroom- for an extended period requires patience, adaptability, and a genuine passion for education. This person has provided consistency, care, and quality instruction, ensuring that learning continued smoothly and students felt supported every day. Setting those standards from day one. This person's hard work and positive attitude have made a lasting and continuing impact on our school community and we deeply appreciate all she has done to uphold our standards of excellence. That is why I am presenting November's Totally Awesome Award to Mrs. Kim Fernandez!"
Congrats Mrs. Fernandez and your commitment covering long term duties for our teachers!

Mrs. Frasier awarded her teammate, Miss. Hunsinger with a poem titled, "An Ode to Awesome":
When I looked for the awesome,
I didn't have to go far.
Just to the incredible teacher
Who drives a beige car.
She is always teaching
Always pulling small group,
From the moment she arrives
'Til the sun starts to droop.
She is silly and serious
And fiercely dedicated,
And she never fails to make time
To help keep us educated.
In all seriousness,
Her drive to reach learners
Is an inspiration
To all who work with her.
She's always learning
Always tweaking for better
Always striving for perfect
To the "T" and the letter.
And humor abounds
When she enters the room-
That warm connection
That makes life bloom.
I've watched all the students
Forever returning
To hug this great lady
who facilitated their learning.
She's an inspiration
And a mentor to boot,
A colleague, a friend, an absolute hoot!
And I award the AWESOME today
To Miss Hunsinger.... Hooray!
Congrats! Miss Hunsinger!

We advertise for the companies that sponsor trees. We offer the choice to these companies to either pick up their tree afterwards or donate the tree to a family or classroom in need. We have donated probably at least 10 trees in the past 2 years to families and classrooms. If you know of a business that might be interested please pass this flyer along.
