She takes time out of her busy schedule to visit with our students and staff just to build rapport and be an encouragement. Michelle also goes well out of her way to provide for the needs of our staff. Whether it is getting a sub on short notice, running copies, or just keeping everything running smoothly in the office, we are all fortunate to have her. I greatly appreciate Michelle's efforts every day and would like to see her recognized for this award.”

She goes above and beyond by taking time away from her family at times to make special activities happen. Clearview is a better place because she is at the front of all situations and shows her positive attitude and caring heart. She definitely has the ROCK characteristics.”
