Congratulations to our first Staff Member of the month, Mrs. Kelly Otto!
See the entry below to see what was said about Mrs. Otto. We are so thankful that Mrs. Otto is a Yellowjacket, and leading member of our team!
"Kelly Otto truly exemplifies what it means to care deeply about our students. She consistently goes above and beyond to support not only their academic needs, but also their emotional well-being. Kelly builds genuine relationships with students, listens with empathy, and responds with compassion and intentional action.
Often, the incredible things Kelly does for our students go unnoticed or unrecognized, yet her impact is undeniable. Whether she is offering guidance during challenging moments, advocating for student needs, or simply being a steady, trusted presence, Kelly ensures that every student feels seen, valued, and supported.
Her commitment to putting students first reflects the very best of our school culture, and her dedication, kindness, and quiet leadership make her truly deserving of Staff Member of the Month recognition."
We would like to extend a huge thank you to our community partners, Vintage Roots, The Cadet Tavern, and Trailhead Coffee for sponsoring Kelly's recognition this month! Please be sure to stop in to our local businesses to support their efforts and thank them for supporting our school!

On February 6, there will be a Service Academy Fair where representatives from the U.S. Service Academies (West Point, Naval Academy, Air Force Academy, and Merchant Marine Academy) will be available to speak with students and parents and answer questions about their schools and the application process. This event is open to students in ninth grade and above, as well as their parents or guardians.

A cold snow day is a good day to take a few seconds to nominate a staff member for our Staff of the Month award! You can remain anonymous or tell us who you are! Either way, let us know who deserves recognition! (PS All Yellowjacket staff members do 🤪)
