EDUCATOR OF THE WEEK
This week's Educator of the Week is Ms. Nicole Perry-Gore. Ms. Perry-Gore is one our most dedicated Educational Support Professionals (ESP) and has been with the district since 2011. She is fantastic with all of the students and staff at the DWS.
When asked about the impact that Ms. Perry-Gore has on her students, Principal MacNeil stated, "Ms. Perry-Gore is a valuable member of the DWS staff. She works within our third-grade classrooms and develops strong, supportive relationships with all of the students she works with. She is caring and goes out of her way to help out whenever she can. We see this regularly, whether it is to tell a joke to make a student smile when something is bothering them or to pull a student to the side and give them a few extra practice problems when she notices they didn't understand something. Not only does she connect with our students, but our teachers as well! She is an essential part of our third-grade team!
Congratulations to Ms. Perry-Gore for being recognized as this week's Educator of the Week. We are fortunate to have her working with our students and staff at the DWS #WeRMarshfield

LUNCHROOM FUN
During my visits around the District this week, I was able to help serve lunch at the MES and the DWS. We know our classrooms across the District are filled with amazing teachers. I'd also add that our cafeterias are filled with kind and caring individuals who help educate our children as well.
