McKinleyStrong Educator of the Week:
The McKinleyStrong Educator of the Week goes to Tier 2 Interventionist, Sami Nelson! Sami has a natural gift at building relationships, collaboration, and creating engaging academic & social-emotional learning experiences for our learners. One of the things that impresses me most about Sami is her commitment to every student, every day. Sami works hard to ensure that McKinley is a successful place for all. Keep being #mckinleystrong, Sami!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
