Happy National Speech Language Pathologist Day! Thank you Ms. Grater for all you do!
Congratulations to Shanda Busby, Challenger Intermediate School Teacher, for receiving the District Attitude Award!
Her nominator wrote, “Shanda Busby brings joy and positivity each and every day! She has brought fun into the world of Social Studies. Challenger 6th-grade students have had the pleasure of meeting with many community members and being exposed to different career fields. Shanda has brought in Veterans twice to speak to students, The Museum of World Treasure, an Anthropologist and Kake News. Not only has she expanded students' knowledge of the community opportunities around them while aligning it with state standards, but she has also brought joy back into school. Shanda also organized multiple 6th-grade classes to walk over to other school buildings in the district and give affirmations. These notes of affirmation brought smiles to staff all around the district. Social-emotional skills and learning are at the forefront of each of her lessons. Shanda checks in with students and staff to see if there is anything they need. Challenger staff and students are so lucky to have her!”
