Euclid Board recognizes March students, staff and family partners

The Euclid Board of Education used part of its meeting to honor students, staff and family partners for March. The board recognized Manuel Santiago, Jada Ford, Christian Smith and Michaela Mosley as Students of the Month, named Michelle Taylor Norman as Staff Member of the Month and recognized faculty member Robin Waldorf and family partners Deborah Mosley and Ela Eisler.

The board’s reading of the Student of the Month resolution said the honorees were nominated by Gina Rashad, principal at Chance Light, for “academic progress, positive behavior and personal growth.” The resolution commended the students for perseverance and responsibility and noted they serve as role models for their peers.

Michelle Taylor Norman was recognized in a separate resolution that described her role as an instructional aide at Chance Light and noted she recently earned a degree in social work. The resolution said Norman is known for supporting students academically and emotionally and for strengthening family and community partnerships.

Robin Waldorf was listed in the meeting record as the faculty member of the month. The resolution describes Waldorf’s role as a curriculum and instruction coordinator who joined the Chance Light team midyear and helped expand project-based learning opportunities.

The board also recognized family partners Deborah Mosley (identified as guardian and grandmother of Michael Mosley) and Ela Eisler (identified as mother of Nicholas Hopkins) for advocacy and collaboration with school staff.

Certificates and small gift bags were presented during the recognition segment; the presenter asked the students to stand in front and invited a round of applause. The meeting record does not include a roll-call vote or tally for these recognitions.

Next steps: these recognitions were announced and congratulated at the meeting; no further action or formal vote is recorded in the transcript.
