MOUNT MARKHAM CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT STAFF SHOUT-OUT CARRIE NELSON CARRIE'S NOMINATOR WROTE: "Carrie organized for Downbeat Percussion to come to the High School to perform for Mustang Day on June 13.

Thank you, Carrie, for including as many students as you could for this wonderful experience. It is something that they will remember for a very long time. The energy of our young students was contagious and energizing! Thank you for all you do for ALL students at Mt. Markham!

MOUNT MARKHAM CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT STAFF SHOUT-OUT MELISSA OSBORN, LORI MARSH, JENNIFER MCDONALD, DAVE KIRKPATRICK, BRIAN MATTISON & HEATHER KAMPF THE NOMINATOR WROTE: "I want to thank everyone that has helped to make the Elementary Music program run smoothly this year! I cannot make this happen alone and I appreciate each one of these people that help me keep around 90 students safe while participating in elementary music rehearsals and performances. Melissa and Lori help me daily to make sure that I know where all of my students are going after rehearsals are done, Brian and Heather and their team at the bus garage help me to make sure I put all of the students on the correct buses when we walk to the high school, Dave helps us cross the road after each of our rehearsals, and Jen has supported this rehearsal schedule for many years. Without this support and help from these individuals (and the members of their teams that work behind the scenes), 3rd and 4th-grade chorus and a 4th-grade musical play would not be possible. I am truly grateful for all of the time and effort they put in on behalf of the students involved in these productions. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!!!!"; images: Melissa Osborn, Lori Marsh, Jennifer McDonald, Dave Kirkpatrick, Brian Mattison, Heather Kampf, Mount Markham Mustang

MOUNT MARKHAM CENTRAL SCHOOL DISTRICT STAFF SHOUT-OUT CAROL AINSLIE, BETH ENTWISTLE & TONYA KING THE NOMINATOR WROTE: "Carol Ainslie, Beth Entwistle, and Tonya King did a superb job last night with the 3rd grade Wax Museum. You know there might be a hit on your hands when there is a crowd waiting in the foyer and an ever larger crowd waiting outside the building to come inside for it to begin. Students learning and their families involved and engaged in the process, what a success to end the school year on. To see students, their immediate family members and for some even their extended family members all interacting, smiling, laughing, talking was truly heartwarming. Families stayed to enjoy the refreshments outside in the courtyard; to talk with friends and neighbors. This was a tremendous success due to the hard work of the teachers involved."; images: Carol Ainslie, Beth Entwistle & Tonya King, Mount MArkham Mustang logo
