Today's Orange Spot Highlights are Kristi Kowalski, Kristi Tabacsko, Dan Palmer, Melissa McCommon and Lindsey Jakes. They were all nominated by Sara Weiss and Jessica Bluhm, who commented "Thank you so much for taking the time to help us with our tour (Covid-style) of the SOAR program- we appreciate your flexibility and willingness to talk to each of our small groups of students. Our Work Based Learning students enjoyed learning about the SOAR program and had a lot of great comments to share with our group about each of you!" Congratulations! #SaginawISD #OrangeSpots
Today's Orange Spot Highlight is Dave Smith. Dave was nominated three times last month. Jon LeFevre stated that "Dave consistently goes out of his way to support others in their projects. He shares his knowledge and expertise of Microsoft Excel and supports our team whenever he is asked and he does it with a smile on his face. It's always much-appreciated!"
Another Team member stated "Dave always has a positive attitude. We travelled to Millet together and had a lot of good laughs on the ride out. He brings a strong spark of positivity to the finance team." Congratulations Dave! #SaginawISD #OrangeSpots
