Tier 1 of the program allows anyone (fellow employee, supervisor, parent, etc.) to submit a nomination to recognize the efforts of Poway Unified classified employees at any time of the year. Nominated classified employees, along with their supervisors and nominator, receive a notification informing them that they have been nominated as a Tier 1 Everyday Hero. Three times a year, a committee reviews the nominations of employees recognized in Tier 1 and selects those to be recognized as Tier 2 Outstanding PUSD employees. Tier 2 employees are recognized at Board of Education meetings receive certificates of recognition. The October Tier 2 Outstanding Classified Employees are: Kyle Allen - Instructional Assistant I - Special Education Twin Peaks Middle School Kyle is a one-on-one aide at Twin Peaks Middle School who volunteered to support one of our special needs students at Oak Valley Middle School at Outdoor School. Kyle is outgoing, energetic, enthusiastic, and genuinely caring. He hadn t worked with the student prior to this so there were many challenges along the way. Kyle put in many long days as he supported his student through breakfast, all day activities, lunch, dinner, and evening program. Kyle was like his big brother, always had a smile on his face, guiding him patiently, and always with his caring nature. When his student was homesick, Kyle stuck with him every step of the way and made it through the week with success and a smile. This extraordinary experience could have never happened without Kyle s support. He was such an amazing mentor, big brother, and patient supporter. The world is made a better place one person at a time, one step at a time. Through Kyle s efforts and support, he changes many lives; he s truly a hero! Kimberly Carroll High School Registrar Westview High School Kim Carroll excels at her job, embraces every challenge and goes miles above and beyond expectations on a daily basis. Her job description doesn't come close to summarizing all the different facets of her daily undertakings; all of which she embraces with skill and passion. While effortlessly multi-tasking, she selflessly gives her time, her experience and knowledge of the job to assist and mentor all of PUSD s Registrars. Being new on the job myself, she has generously taken on the daunting task of training me in this new job that carries with it a year-long learning curve. From day one, on a daily basis; she has answered my multitude of phone calls and s, as well as offered herself in person, to give me the best opportunity to be successful in this new position. Her positive outlook and patience seems Continued

20 endless. It s mind-boggling how she handles many needs, responds to questions from the other Registrars, and acts as a right-hand gal to our management, without skipping a beat managing her own, extensive job responsibilities. I sincerely hope PUSD will recognize the valuable contributions Kim has, and continues to provide to PUSD employees; and therefore, to PUSD as a whole. She so deserves this recognition. Dan Flaherty Maintenance Worker II Maintenance & Operations During the summer of 2014, I personally witnessed the diligence and ingenuity of Dan Flaherty. He singlehandedly fixed, welded, and fabricated parts of 430 student desks at Rancho Bernardo High School. Since most of the student desks have a missing part or parts, he fabricated the parts to make the desks usable again. What makes him commendable is he did these by himself. He is truly a great asset for the district. Laura Gonzalez Garcia Parent Liaison-Bilingual Valley Elementary School Laura Gonzalez Garcia goes above and beyond! This year in addition to her job duties, she volunteered at Back to School Night with the School Counselor. She helped to provide resources for families and to encourage them to register for the 3-Day Positive Parenting Program. Every year, Laura voluntarily attends each parenting class. She arrives early and leaves late. She makes sure the presenters and families needs are met, and that the childcare runs smoothly. She is an invaluable member of the Valley Team. She is reliable, dedicated, and committed when it comes to meeting the needs of students and families. She is highly regarded by teachers, administrators, support staff, and parents and is an absolute asset to our team! Olga Jones Middle School Accounting Technician Twin Peaks Middle School Twin Peaks Middle School has the distinct honor of having Olga Jones working with us on our site. As our Finance Secretary, Olga arrives daily at the crack of dawn, well before others, and begins organizing her many tasks. I am not sure how she stays on top of all of the things she does. As the Director of Activities at Twin Peaks, I have had the pleasure of working with Olga since she started at Twin Peaks. Olga is a warm and generous person who is an active listener and always tries to find solutions for whatever the current issue may be. In her "spare time", she organizes our "Sunshine" Teacher/Staff group. This puts her in the forefront of organizing cards, gifts, and events for the happy times of our staff as well as the sad. This is a difficult task that she has done for many years out of the kindness of her heart because she cares for the Twin Peaks Family. As busy as we all are at the end of the school year, Olga also coordinates our end of the year summer celebration. I for one am grateful that she is part of the Twin Peaks Family and would like to see her recognized for all that she does. Tarrah Marcus Instructional Assistant I Special Education Mt. Carmel High School Tarrah is new to Mt. Carmel this year and she came in embracing the Sundevil Way! Tarrah takes time with each student making them feel important, smart, and accountable. She gets to know them on a personal level and relates to them in order to get the desired work out of them. She is a natural working with high school students. When I say she goes above and beyond, it barely scratches the tip of the iceberg! She stays after working hours to make sure that students understand math concepts. She listens to them if they are having personal issues. She does all of this and more without being asked and every single day she has a huge smile on her face, a desire to help, and a positive attitude. We are so lucky to have her here on campus, and I am lucky to have her in my class. Elizabeth McDowell Program Aide ESS Del Sur Elementary School I would like to nominate Elizabeth (Lizzie) for her outstanding work with the children here at Del Sur ESS. Lizzie's dedication, effort and creativity amaze me every day. She is always early for work to begin Continued

21 preparing for her project for the day, or coming in with a new creative idea that she came up with at home the night before. Lizzie has put together countless projects and activities that teach the children about various topics, from how to make butter and how to say words in Italian, to earthquakes and how they make the earth shake. She genuinely cares about the kids and comes to work excited about her job each day. The kids in her group always walk away having had a blast as well as learning something new. Deirdre Sheehy School Administrative Assistant Middle School Oak Valley Middle School Deirdre is the heart of Oak Valley. She is the go-to person for everything and is always patient and smiling, even though she might have been asked the same question a million times. Deirdre will get it done, whatever it takes. Most recently she put in long days getting 6th grade camp organized and finalized for our campers. Over the years, Deirdre has been the glue that has held Oak Valley on course as we have gone through the usual changes of administrators. She has employed her knowledge of the school, sense of humor, wit and wisdom and vast patience as she has done her job most remarkably! Kathy Webb School Administrative Assistant Elementary Pomerado Elementary From the moment Kathy Webb set foot on our campus and officially became a Pomerado Wildcat last year, she has made a most positive and significant impact at our school. We are a CHARACTER COUNTS! school and Kathy exhibits the six pillars of character: Trustworthiness, Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, and Citizenship. Recently, a dad volunteered to paint lines at our school, but he needed access during the weekend. Kathy volunteered without hesitation to drive over and open the gate so that he could paint the lines. In all ways, Kathy has demonstrated the highest level of character and professionalism. Her contributions have made our school a better place since she first joined us! Everyone has nothing but the most positive things to say about our friend. I can t imagine how she doesn t deserve the highest level of recognition that our district has to give. She is truly our great hero!

Collins AGENDA ITEM: B-2(e) Staff Support: Jessica Wakefield, Debby Wulff SUBJECT: TEAM PUSD RECOGNITION PROGRAM Action Consent Calendar First Reading Information Presentation Public Hearing Roll Call Vote Required RECOMMENDATION: Information. DISCUSSION/PROGRAM: TEAM PUSD is designed to recognize an admirable team of employees, who together accomplish an exceptional task or project. The recognition is for a group of two or more certificated and/or classified individuals who have made a significant contribution to the benefit of PUSD, an individual, his or her work site, the community, or other volunteer or service organization. The activity for which they are being recognized generally demonstrates excellence or exceeds the employee's normal job responsibilities. Nominated for a TEAM PUSD award are: Dale Klinert and Robert Cicero Mt. Carmel High School Groundskeeper II s Mr. Klinert and Mr. Cicero are a great team and have done a phenomenal job of getting Mt. Carmel High School ready for staff and students. They were tasked with gigantic cleanup and trimming jobs and worked tirelessly to complete them. They have trimmed plants and trees that have been overlooked for many years. They have adjusted sprinklers and created a watering schedule that will help reduce the amount of water MCHS will use for irrigation during our statewide drought emergency. They have taken out old overgrown plants and created plans to plant shrubs and flowers that will be more visually appealing to staff and students and that will display our school colors. The work they did to prepare not only for athletes to return to the fields, and students to return to campus, but also for the entire district to visit our site for several special presentations by Dr. Collins has been fantastic. Our coaches are raving about their fields. The principal commented that in his eleven years at MCHS, the grounds have never looked as good as they have in the past four weeks." Our parents, students, and staff have noticed a difference, and we are beautifying our campus. Thank you to Dale and Bob, the grounds team at Mt. Carmel. They contribute largely to our Sundevil Way and the pride our community has in our school and district! Marcelina (Ellen) Nazareno and Dennis Sweeney Stone Ranch Elementary School Custodians Both Dennis and Ellen stepped up and took on additional duties when our lead custodian became ill and unable to work. During the summer months they both packaged up and readied four teachers classrooms who were transferred to other sites. When the District drivers came to take the items to the new site they were so excited to see them wrapped with plastic and put together so nicely that it made the move easy for them, as well as for the teachers when they arrived at their new site. To prepare for the new school year, Marcelina and Dennis completed additional cleaning in rooms where necessary, even if not on their route, to assist each other with the extra responsibilities that Continued

23 resulted from not having the lead there. The Health Office was given extra care to ensure it was clean and germ free each evening to make sure our students and staff remain healthy. They make sure that the areas where children walk are safe, including replacing the lights for their walkways to be safe at night during their evening routes. Where would we be without their "CAN DO ATTITUDE" and their smiles? They are kind and generous and show what our Character Pillars talk about. Thank you to these extra special employees at Stone Ranch Elementary.

Wulff, Dawn Zwibel Personnel Support Services During the "relaxation" of the summer months, PSS was not relaxing! Employees of the department were accomplishing the impossible. Thousands of PUSD employees received retroactive pay increases, hundreds of certificated employees were hired, and hundreds of classified employees were hired! Each of our dedicated staff worked evenings, weekends, and holidays to make this happen. It was a huge task but one handled with professionalism and an understanding of doing "whatever it takes" to be sure employees were in place, cleared of all requirements and appropriately placed in the payroll system to start the new school year. Personnel Support Services is a team of professionals both certificated and classified, that includes departments of Payroll, Risk Management, Personnel Commission, Insurance and Human Resources, as well as Administrative and Director Support. The team provides excellent service to all applicants, prospective and current employees, as well as retirees. What makes this team so incredible is the daily dedicated compassion and concern they have for their work and all employees. Team spirit is observed and seen daily as different groups assist each other to collaborate, generate effective processes, revise and refine work flow and meet common goals such as getting all those new employees processed in August and ready to report to work to support our students on the first day of school. This includes everything from recruitment, testing, interviewing, enrollment in insurance benefits, on line trainings, pre-employment physicals, employee orientations, signing of contracts, establishing s and more! Getting employees ready to open school with all the personnel components in place prepares them to provide direct services to our clients. I am so impressed with this team and their knowledge skills and dedication to service. PSS is the proud place to be.
