Archived HI-FIVES
Tony Millum- Our amazing Custodian mopped up, cleaned up, rolled up and sanitized all and everything. I don't know what we would do without his hardworking dedication.
Nurse Plach- This week Munhall had a lot of sick children. Nurse Plach remained extremely positive, calm and empathic while having a long line of extremely sick kids outside her door. THANK YOU for helping our kids feel better.
Mrs. Heuser, Mrs. Keegan and Mrs. Tom- Munhall Fall Fest was amazing thanks to their continuous hard work!
Laura Egasti for her patience and perseverance in making sure her students always have all the tools they need at any given moment and her willingness to closely partner with families for well rounded consistency.
Amber Keegan and Amanda O'Brien for always seeing the kids where they are at in the moment AND where they have the potential to go and then pushing them gently to reach their fullest potential.
Jay'ceon Wilson in 5-P has offered a hand to help a Kindergarten student back to class when the student was struggling. I saw him on another occasion give him a little high five which made the kindergartener smile.Adilynn Aguirre in 1-Wallen. Adilynn has helped her peers smile when having a bad day.
