Congratulations Ashley Newton on your ROW THE BOAT nomination! Here is what a colleague said about you! "Ashley is vital in bridging the gap between students with disabilities and meaningful employment opportunities in her role as Community Work Transition Program (CWTP) Student Employment Specialist. She works exceptionally well with special needs students, fostering an environment of encouragement and personalized support. Her ability to connect with each student individually allows her to assess their unique strengths, interests, and needs, which helps her tailor job placements and skill-building activities effectively. By collaborating with educators, employers, and families, she ensures that students are prepared for work and empowered to reach their potential in real-world settings. Her dedication and passion for student success make her an invaluable asset to the program."
Congratulations Christina McGaughey, Stephanie Penix, and Jennifer Griffin on your ROW THE BOAT nomination! Here is what a colleague said about you! " Mrs. Mac, Mrs. Penix, and Mrs. Griffin are wonderful examples of The Boat. These ladies help ensure that our MSD students have their needs met and are in a thriving learning environment. They all work together to make sure that they are able to serve the students in their classroom. When a student was having difficulty starting the school day they implemented a plan to make it more enjoyable for her, she now walks in with a smile on her face every day! The positivity and teamwork I see these ladies use on a daily basis is a true inspiration. They embody The Boat because their service and sacrifice inspires me and many others within our building. I want to thank them for the love and patience they show in their classroom. SCES is a better place because of the three of them! "
Congratulations Stacy Carmany on your ROW THE BOAT nomination! Here is what a colleague said about you! "Stacy is definitely the boat to our department.

She dedicates her time helping, striving and keeping our positive atmosphere. We greatly appreciate everything you do for us Stacy...Thank you!"

Congratulations Ms. St. Bernard on your Row the Boat nomination! Here is what a colleague said about you! "Beth has come into the role of our Principal this year and has gone above and beyond to give our staff the support and guidance we need. She has jumped in feet first and has provided a clear vision of where she would like the Preschool to go. She offers help and instruction and always has her door OPEN. If she doesn't know the answer to a question, she will go wherever she needs to go to find it! She's not just a great leader, she is someone who you feel like will listen to ideas and will do anything she can to see the ELC and its staff succeed!"
