During the recent Board of Trustees meeting in California, a special order of business highlighted the invaluable contributions of student board representatives. The board took a moment to honor these young leaders, recognizing their commitment and service.

Charlie, who is completing her first year as a board member, received a certificate of appreciation. Although fellow student representatives Madison and Gavin were absent, Shelby, a former board member, was present to receive her graduation stole patch, a new initiative inspired by her request. This patch symbolizes the dedication of student board members and will be worn during graduation ceremonies.

In addition to the recognition of current and former student representatives, the meeting featured a spotlight on South Leman Elementary School. Principal John expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to work in such a supportive environment, emphasizing the school's strong community and the positive impact it has on students.

The meeting showcased the board's commitment to celebrating student achievements and fostering a sense of pride within the educational community. As the school year progresses, the board looks forward to continuing these traditions and supporting the next generation of leaders.
