5. SPECIAL RECOGNITIONS AND HONORS:
Description:
The Minnewaska School Board and the Minnewaska Area Middle School want to recognize the MAMS Lead Office Assistant, Nancy Rapp. Nancy oversees the needs of students and staff at the five grade levels and is the only office assistant in the middle school. Nancy is not just good at what she does; she anticipates needs before they happen and often has a solution worked out before anyone is aware of a potential problem. Nancy is a team player and puts student needs first. If you visit the middle school office, you will often see Nancy completing her administrative duties while counseling a student who is having a rough day and supervising multiple students. Nancy's selfless attitude and ability to anticipate needs before they arise have made her invaluable to our team and the definition of Laker Pride. |
