Amanda Painter- You are such a wonderful addition to our ELAR department and campus. I could not be more excited to work with you and share in your journey this year. It is already very apparent that you have fantastic relationships with your students and your work ethic is noticed. Our students are so lucky to have you!
- Randi Titzel
The World Cultures team could not function without Alicia Estrada! She is in our classrooms every day, supporting our kids and supporting us with patience and generosity. Thank you, Mrs. Estrada!!
- Jennifer Phillips and Hanna Schulz
Thank you to the universe and the administrators that paired me with Hanna Schulz. Hanna, you are so kind and so creative. Your belief in the greatness of our students and the value of social studies education buoys me and keeps me excited for every new day. We are going to have such a wonderful year with our amazing 6th graders!
Welcome to our team, Larissa Ortiz! I appreciate your presence, your positivity, and your efforts to make connections with us and with every 6th grader. Thank you for being here!

I am extremely proud of Mr. Lampe and Mr. Cooper for their leadership in the 7th GLTs. They have been positive, prepared, and eager to celebrate their students at each meeting thus far.

Thank you to all of the staff for helping us get our FLEX IB Design underway - especially our 6th grade teachers with their IB Design classes!! It will be a new adventure for us, but I know that our students will be much more prepared for all things IB.
Thank you to the administration for making it possible to have our entire certified staff trained in IB Design...what a privilege it was to participate!
Kudos to MAXIE for choosing a new group of students each day to sit with in the cafeteria and eat her lunch - what a great way to get to know them a bit better. Way to go MAXIE!!
What a smooth start to our school year - KUDOS to ALL of you for making that a reality. I am privileged to work with an amazing group of dedicated educators!
- Emilee Hinegardner
Thank you, thank you to Tucker and Urban who do so much for all of us in the library! The Book Fair is great! The teacher snacks were delicious!
I highly recommend Urban's fares - jams/jellies, salsas, pickles, etc!
