I would like to give a brobdingnagian shoutout to my World History teacher, John A. May. My entire day could be going terrible, but the moment I enter his classroom, my day becomes much more pleasant. He's funny and makes class entertaining and fun to learn in. And this is what gives me the desire to keep learning in this class and keeping up the good grades in this class. It's the perfect balance between fun and informative. And I have the privilege of having his class last period because having him last period puts the cherry on top of my day. Thank you so much, Mr. May. I'm grateful for having you as my World History teacher. - Jair Reàtegui

Julie Evert is a gift to MMSD. She has taken on the work of the Student Services Professional Learning Team and is doing a great job! I always learn so much when I talk to her! Thanks for being awesome Julie!

Kari Stampfli, you and your team of healthcare workers are amazing! Thank you so much for your care and for all of the incredible efforts you have made during the pandemic. You rock! Kirsten Worzala Dumke

The most sincere thank you to our AMAZING and hard-working nurses Julie and Erin in Lincoln Elementary. They are truly dedicated to keeping our students safe. We know it hasn't been easy for them. We appreciate you!

Abbi Dunning and Nancy Schlesinger at Sandburg - and ALL of our nurses - thank you, thank you, thank you! While there isn't a soul in the school system that has an easy job during a pandemic, there are many things that make it extra hard to be a school nurse right now. You all are wonderful and know that we appreciate you!!
