We would like to congratulate the following individuals for being selected as January Employees-of-the-Month. They exemplify everything that makes Raider Nation great. Congratulations, Raiders!
Teacher-of-the-Month: Ginni Priya
Ms. Priya spent dozens of hours this July - and it is still ongoing - tracking down and reviewing records for incoming ESOL students. This required nearly a hundred phone calls and emails to schools and families across the U.S. and around the world to obtain records in multiple languages. She also spends 2-3 hours individually screening each new student's language proficiency. All of this is in addition to leading the ESOL team and teaching full-time. She is doing work that few could or would do, in service of some of the most vulnerable students in our schools.
Team-of-the-Month: On-level Bio PLC
The failure rate for the on-level Biology students first semester was 4.5%. This is the lowest failure rate for this group of students in AHS history! The team has worked so hard and developed such a great program that truly supports their students. We all remember the days when Biology was used as the example of a course with a lot of failures. Thanks to the relentless work of this team, that isn't the case anymore!
