STAFF-TO-STAFF SHOUTOUT:
"Mrs. Shelly Ruiz is the school psychologist at Meadowvale. She is always willing to go the extra mile for our students, their families, our staff, and our administration. She is one of the first ones to respond when assistance is needed. She does everything with a smile on her face and if she doesn't have the answer she will work to help you find one! She checks in on classrooms regularly to see how students and staff are doing. We are so lucky to have Mrs. Ruiz as part of our team not only at Meadowvale but in the Washington Local School district!"
In the journey of educating students, there is nothing better than having someone beside you. Mrs. Ruiz is SO awesome!

PARENT SHOUT:
"I want to take a moment to recognize Ms. Wietro for the wonderful, caring, and thoughtful person she is. My daughter is a freshman at Whitmer. Starting high school has been a big change for her, especially since she has Autism. Ms. Wietro has always and continues to go above and beyond for her. Since day one she has been so supportive with every obstacle we’ve faced and every challenge Kaitlyn has come across. Just today, Kaitlyn had a meltdown about missing lunch because she wasn’t feeling well. Ms. Wietro took it upon herself to drive to our home and make sure Kaitlyn had the lunch she wanted. For some it may seem small but for Kaitlyn, it changed her whole day. I am so thankful that we have someone constantly looking out for our girl and someone who truly cares for her well-being. She deserves so much recognition for all she’s done for our family this year.”
Sometimes parents put into words what WE see every day.
So many students have benefitted from Ms. Wietrzykowski's love!
