Congratulations to special education teacher Amy D’Antonio and paraprofessional Mary Kondras, who received the first
#54BlueAppleAward for
Lakeview Elementary School. Students, staff and some of their family surprised them with these awards and video messages of congratulations during a Friday morning assembly.
Amy’s nomination described her as someone who never stops believing that every child can achieve their goals. “She creates an environment that allows everyone to learn no matter what level they are at. She is smiling every day because she sees the best in everyone.”
Mary’s job is to provide support to one student, however, her nomination described how she helps cares for all Lakeview students. “She is always working to make sure all students have what they need in order to be successful. Mary cares for each student like they were her own.”
District 54 is honored to have these two individuals working in our schools and grateful to them for all they do for our students. Congratulations again on this well-deserved recognition.
