Her resources are top notch, completely engaging for students, and technically savvy. I appreciate her willingness to show me and explain to me how things were done last year, in a patient and kind manner. Susie is a very hard-worker who stops at "nada" to get the job done for kids. ¡Mil gracias a ti por todo tu ayuda!

I loooooove that! Thanks for realizing we have different ways of processing information and precious limited time in which to do it. Some of us need the bulletpoint version of communications, so thanks from all the busy peeps and the neurodivergents of the faculty!

Laura especially is always ready to do what it takes to find ways to better assist students whether it is through revisions or simply listening to ideas the team has. She is always ready to continue moving forward. Her hard work is undeniable and very admirable. Jen and Terri also work feverishly to meet students during their off periods to make sure no student falls between the cracks. Their work reflects what the love teachers have for education. Ultimately, I am very blessed to be surrounded by these talented educators, learning to be the best version of myself because of them.

She truly cares about the students who are in her room. The students know that she cares about them, and they respect her and confide in her. She is also always asking how she can help with other tasks in the Deans' Office. She has been a huge help to me, and I am grateful!

She has duties that need to be completed in a timely manner, but has no control over who may call her desk at any moment or walk in. She handles all of this all with kindness, friendliness, meticulous detail and class. In addition, when walking down the halls, she is friendly to all students and staff. We are so lucky to have her represent our school to anyone calling or visiting!

Jenna's positivity is contagious, sincere and she approaches challenges as creative problem solving opportunities. She checks-in with staff and students alike, to be sure all are well and supports them if need be, with a Mary Poppins size bag of resources. She emphasizes empathy, understanding, equity and advocated for these values on the portrait of a graduate committee. Thank you Jenna, I am so grateful for you here at LZHS as you lift us up!
