The Warwick School District runs a ‘Warriors SHINE’ Program each month to recognize staff members for going above and beyond the scope of their jobs.
SHINE is an acronym that stands for Supportive, Helpful, Inclusive, Nurturing, and Exceptional. Staff members who exemplify these characteristics can be nominated by other staff members, students, or community members by using this form.
Each month, we do a drawing of all staff members who have been nominated for the chance to win a free personal day.
Congratulations to the following staff members who received kudos this month:
Lauren Graybill (WHS), Chris Epler (WHS), Emily McGonigal (KH), Jami Zimmerman (WHS), Ryan Hough (WMS), Gaby Dannehl (WHS), Faith Siegrist (LE), Wanda Weachter (WHS), Andrea Bear (LE), Kati Karam (LE), Jen Teale (LE), Alyssa Becker (LE), Bobby Rhoads (WMS), Jacquie Sica (WMS), Don Miller (WMS), Jacob Williams (WMS), Madalyn Ferrari (JB), Angie Rubin (JB), Courtney Wolgemuth (JRB), Tanya Myers (DW), Allison Hausman (KH/JRB), Natalie Strickler (DW), Susan Shinn-Thomas (DW), Dakota Johnson-Ortiz (WHS), Toriel Herman (JB), Lyle Ressler (WMS), Amy Evans (JB), Sarah Boyer (JB), Maggie Karstetter (LE), Taylor Cole (WHS), Erika Deeter (JRB), Abby Stauffer (LE), Hannah Dunnenberger (LE), Samantha Wilson (WMS), Patty Appel (LE), Kirsten Lefever (JRB), Rachel Post (JRB), Jonathan Shoff (WMS/WHS), Ann Ahlers (WMS/WHS), Tim Thompson (DW), Anna Gutzler (JB), Cameron Stanford (JB), Fred Zeiset (WMS), Kati Pusey (KH), Mike Neuman (WHS), Dan Myers (WHS), Sam Snyder (WHS), Amanda Peiffer (WMS/WHS), Jonathan Olshan (DW), Doug Balmer (WHS), Matt Tenaglia (WMS/WHS), Stefan Homberger (WHS), Cody Byus (DW), Kim Clugston (DW), Selena Caplinger (DW), Charlee Crosby (LE), Jess Bare (DW), Kris Hoskins (DW), Tiffany Henkel (JB), Theresa Cross (JB, JRB, KH, LE), Amanda Cracroft (KH), Melissa Delduca (LE), Mandy Sands (LE), Katie Brandt (JB), Carly McKinney (KH), Sue Garner (DW), Stef Brutout (LE), Liz Metzler (LE/JB), Joe Gulbin (LE), Gaby Martinez (JRB), Amber Shwartz (JB), Kayla Peters (JRB), Jennifer Boyer (WMS), Cherie Mathis (WMS), Jamie Iser (WMS), Laurie Sceski (JRB), Angelina Vandetty (LE), Cassie Burkholder (KH), Jeanne Iser (KH), Ashley Martin (KH), Maria Rosario Martinez (KH), Paula Shumaker (DW), Julia Hoak (WHS), Angelina VanSomeren (LE), Stefan Homberger (WHS), Megan Miller (WHS), Jason Balsbaugh (KH/LE), Andrea Shertzer (JB/JRB), Jason Reifsnyder (DW), Josh Barnas (WHS), Eddy Cordero (KH), Megan Demianovich (DW), Melanie Calender (DW), and Alexis Kepley (WHS)
