Congratulations to our own Amy Wilcoxon, who was recognized tonight by the Ohio Middle Level Association at their annual state conference! Her nomination read as follows:
Amy, the Head Custodian at Graham Middle School (GMS), is like the Swiss Army knife of the school, tackling roles like Student Council Advisor, event baker/chef, and special art installations, and the ultimate go-to guru for staff assistance and fresh ideas. She also moonlights as the leader of community projects like "The Giving Loft" a free clothing store for families for multiple years. After 22 years at GMS, Amy is basically a student mentor superhero, enjoying personal interactions and teaching opportunities like a pro. She's also a champion advocate for students and parents in her service to the Champaign County Board of Developental Disabilities. Amy's list of accolades is longer than a CVS receipt. She's been recognized by the Ohio Arts Education Association as a Distinguished Citizen for Art Education and was also nominated recently for the RISE Award for her exemplary service. Yes, she's that awesome! Graham Middle School is incredibly lucky to have Amy wearing so many hats (and capes) at GMS.
Election day in Mrs. McGuire's class with the students, Mrs. Rouch and Mr. Perdue. Lessons this week about the branches of government and the democratic process of elections. Students then cast their own ballow. Students also treated staff by baking "election day" cookies.
Manufacturing Day at GMS was a success. This annual event allows students to consider career opportunities while partnering with local business and industry.

A few scenes from our October PBIS assembly. We truly enjoy the opportunities for our student leaders to celebrate staff and peers. Games at the end were a hit, but the Dancin' Band from Falconland stole the show!
