STAR Award Winners

At Eastern Elementary our teachers and staff are AMAZING! In an effort to remind them how awesome they really are, we have created a way for them to recognize each other for various contributions they are making to our school community. Staff in the Elementary building can nominate a co-worker for STAR recognition. Those who are recognized are entered into a drawing for an Amazon gift card sponsored by our Ohio School Wellness Initiative (OSWI) staff wellness grant.  

STAR stands for Supportive, Talented, Amazing, and Refreshing. Teachers are asked to nominate a fellow staff member if they went above and beyond to be SUPPORTIVE to another team member, student, or parent. Staff may have a special TALENT for doing something that makes Eastern Local the amazing place it is! Perhaps they have created something AMAZING for their classroom; an out of the box lesson, or thought of a creative and extraordinary way to engage students, families, or the community. Or maybe something they have done was REFRESHING and helped keep our Eagle family happy, healthy, and learning. 

Recognized Staff for September: Debbie Barber, Christi Lisle, Ruthie Hopkins, Melissa Barker, Debbie Pratt. Recognized staff not pictured:  Lesa Sidwell, Chris Wilson, Heather Wilcoxen, Mary Anne Moore, and Angi DeFreitas,  

Recognized Staff for October: Larissa Carouthers, Cathy Elliott, Jeremy Hill, Debbie Barber, Angie Rigsby, and Bobbi Harbour (not pictured). 

Now we would like to give you the opportunity to say thank you or recognize a staff member who you have noticed making a difference. If you would like to recognize one of our staff members, please use the google form below. Staff will be notified of what positive statement was said about them and you can choose if you want your name included or if you prefer for the note to be anonymous.
