Omodt, Robertson BCSD 101 stars
|
March 28, 2013 |
Boundary County School District 101 has selected
Barb Robertson and Luke Omodt as its March,
2013, Employees of the Month.
Special education director Ken Olson nominated
17-year para-professional Barb Robertson, better
known to most in the community as that golden,
soaring voice who has launched the Boundary
County Fair for years with both the "National
Anthem" and "Oh, Canada."
According to Olson, Barb has made a huge
difference in the lives of many students working
in a variety of roles.
She's worked with kids in the pre-school
program, in the life skills classroom and, for
the past eight years, as the speech/language
aide, who, working closely with the
speech/language pathologist, helped children
from around the district.
"She cares about every child she works with
along with a deep caring for the school system
and everyone involved in each school. She is a
pleasure to work with and always has a smile on
her face and a positive attitude," Olson said.
Luke Omodt has less history here in Bonners
Ferry, but he is recognized as being so
impressive that it took high school principal
Kirk Hoff more than 10 words to laud him.
Omodt, by the way, is the new high school
history/government teacher.
"Luke is new to our History/Government
Deptartment this year and is doing great things
both for the department and all students of BFHS,"
high school principal Kirk Hoff wrote. " Luke's
leadership class is taking big strides under his
guidance. For example, when this picture was
taken, Luke was choreographer of the Teacher’s
Interpretive Dance."
After that, Omodt was a a shoo in.
"I didn't know Mr. Hoff knew that many words,"
one student said. |
