Students place in oral language festival; board honors staff years of service
Summary
Two students advanced through levels of an oral language festival and the board presented longevity pins to employees with five to thirty years of service; members congratulated students, coaches and staff.
The board agenda included recognition of student performers and longtime employees. Board members and staff congratulated two students who progressed through local and regional rounds of an oral language festival and advanced to the county level.
Staff identified fifth‑grade student Audrey Miranda as a returning competitor and introduced Brooklyn McAfee, who performed a humorous solo based on the author John Scieszka’s retelling of "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs." Coaches described the time students spent practicing and competing at on‑site, regional and county levels. Board members praised the students and the coaches for their work.
The district also presented longevity service recognition pins to classified and certificated staff at five‑year increments. The transcript names several recipients (examples read during the meeting include Jeffrey Benson, Esmeralda Gaborne, Ed Schell, Deborah Johnson, Sarah Wilson, Andrea Jones and Rob DeBarr) and notes someone in the meeting had served 30 years. Board members thanked staff and noted teacher appreciation week events and related campus activities.
Board members also referenced a recent ribbon‑cutting and mural unveiling at a site cafeteria, and staff described upcoming summer programs and staffing work in human resources. The transcript records congratulations and thanks from multiple board members and staff; no formal votes were required for recognitions.
