Hall of Fame Award Past Recipient Spotlight Diane Ciccone, How did it make you feel to be both nominated for, and a recipient of, this award? I was honored that I was remembered. As a Hall of Fame Award recipient, you are a role model to current and former students of Mount Markham CSD. How does serving as a role model make you feel? I hope that students can look at what I have accomplished and realize that they can as well. We often forget that innovators and contributors to this society come from everywhere, including small towns and schools. Image: Diane Ciccone, Mount Markham CSD logo

They represented the district to the nth degree. They were welcome hosts to the 13 different schools participating in the event. Nothing seemed to phase them that day. It was almost as if they had thought of every type of disruption possible and already figured out possible responses on how to handle them. They had smiles on their faces from the start to the end. They were rock stars."; photos of Eric Bugbee, Katie Lindsey and Hannah Raymond

Congratulations to Maura Bednarczyk for receiving a Staff Shout-Out! Your kindness and compassion for others does not go unnoticed.

Staff Shout-Out: Maura Bednarczyk, quote reads: "A student of mine was confused after the long weekend as to which day it was - A or B. He went to the wrong class and didn't realize his mistake until a few minutes after class started. He was very embarrassed and upset. While he was outside my room taking some time to calm down while I taught, Maura stopped by and took time out of her day to help the student feel better. After she made him laugh, he was able to calm down enough to return to class. She didn't need to stop by on her way through, but took the time to do what was best for a student in need. I so appreciated the gesture, as did he! " Photo of Maura Bednarczyk
