Barrow's Best honors support staff across district
Summary
The board recognized 'Barrow's Best' honorees—staff nominated by peers and previous honorees—including contributors in nutrition, transportation, custodial and support roles for their service to students and colleagues.
The board presented 'Barrow's Best' awards that recognize support staff nominated by peers and chosen by a committee of prior honorees. The categories named in the presentation included contributing professional, school nutrition, service employee, support employee and transportation employee.
Board presenters named honorees including Jay (Jade) Baker for contributing professional recognition, Betsy Sheffield for school nutrition at Bear Creek Middle School, Abraham Villegas (day porter/custodian at Austin Road Elementary), Natalie Hodge (bookkeeper at Winder Elementary) and Colleen Lee (transportation supervisor). Board representatives described nominees' work supporting students and staff and asked winners to come forward for photographs and recognition.
Presenters said the awards highlight personnel who 'go above and beyond' and create supportive school environments; the recognition segment concluded before moving on to CTAE awards.
