PARENT SHOUT:
"I wanted to reach out and share how truly thankful I am for Mrs. Zielinski and the love and dedication she shows Charlotte every single day. Charlotte has hard days sometimes, but Mrs. Zielinski never gives up on her. She is always finding new ways to keep Charlotte motivated, confident, and excited about school—and that means everything to me as a mom. Her kindness extends far beyond the classroom, too. At the Whitmer cheer clinic, Mrs. Zielinski’s daughter stayed with Charlotte the entire time, making sure she knew the motions and felt comfortable. Her other daughter even brought Charlotte seashells back from Florida, which absolutely melted her heart. Those little moments have made such a big impact on Charlotte and our family. This is what an amazing teacher looks like—someone who genuinely cares, goes above and beyond, and makes every child feel seen and valued. We are so grateful for Mrs. Zielinski and feel incredibly lucky to have her in Charlotte’s life. Thank you for supporting such wonderful teachers."
There is NOTHING like knowing your chld is cared for in your absence.

STAFF SHOUT:
"It takes a village to raise a child and Pam Frey is the epitome of this quote. She is so much more than "just" a para. Pam is the heart of our classroom and the wheel that keeps it running.
Our students (and staff) affectionately call her Grammy Pammy, and rightfully so. We all have those memories, and feelings, of calm and love when walking into a grandparents home. That is what Pam brings to our classroom and to our students. That undeniable feeling that they are safe, loved and cared for. She keeps extra snacks, plans fun activities and always has a hug ready for every student, or staff member, in need. She attends games, shows and birthday parties for past and present students. This isn't done out of obligation, but only love. There is no doubt that she leaves a lasting impression and core memories for all that cross her path.
Silver Creek is beyond lucky to have her as part of our staff!!"
I'm not crying. YOU'RE crying! What a testament to an incredible child advocate!

STAFF SHOUT:
"When Ally Evanoff (Jefferson) found out that a student hadn't eaten breakfast, she immediately asked about his food preferences and quickly found him something to eat so he would feel better and be able to work academically. This is something Ally does often, making sure the kids are happy, fed, and ready to conquer their day. She's a great intervention specialist and truly a wonderful individual!"
