FINISH STRONG!


The November ICARE Extraordinaire is awarded to Mr. Magee. As Mrs. Cox presents the trophy, here is what she had to say:
I am so thankful to Joe O’Shields for giving me ICARE Extraordinaire Award. It meant so much coming from him. Let me just say that man is the BEST paraprofessional I’ve ever worked with. He does so much more than any other than I’ve ever worked with.
It has been difficult deciding to whom to bestow this award. So many folks in the room are ones that I admire for a myriad of reasons—from their skill sets, to their passions, to their work ethic. But I had to decide. This educator has been like a sponge soaking up instructional strategies, literacy strategies and learning the PLC process. They embody ICARE on so many levels. They work after work hours and even on some weekends with their students to cultivate their skills and prepare them for competition and life after graduation. Additionally, he is building his program here at The Academy and within the community. This teacher is creating strong relationships with his students. He is a role model to many.
Congratulations, Mr. Greg Magee!

DON'T FORGET!!!
