Staff to Staff Kudos!
Congratulations to Jennifer Yarber from completing her Language Therapist Certification at Scottish Rite!
You Matter forms are in the teacher workroom. Recognize your peers on the wall in the lounge!
I know that you all observe staff members going above and beyond on a daily basis to support students, fellow staff members, and the overall success of Hurst Hills. Please send in Kudos as you see them so that staff can be recognized for the things they do from day to day that make a difference. I would also love to share personal celebrations! Email your recognition to Beth by Friday to be added to the weekly notes!!
