Congratulations to Katie Clayton our PHS November Staff Member of the Month. Katie is a special education teacher and sets an example everyday for kids with her kindness, positivity, and her commitment to serving kids. We are so proud of her. Please read tributes below from her colleagues:
Katie works hard in the classroom to give her students a good education, while multitasking with meetings, resource room needs and emotional support for her students.
She did a superb job on the Veteran's Day Assembly. Everything ran smoothly, the students knew exactly what to do and it went off without a hitch. I was so impressed and proud for her.
Katie has brought tremendous change to the Sped department. The children in that room are thriving and she deserves every bit of recognition!
