!VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

!For April, we would like to express our appreciation for a volunteer who tends to just appear at times when she is not expected, but most needed. From classroom to Family Center, Christi Hawkins does a bit of everything. During the worst of our winter, Christi helped by voluntarily standing out in the cold with Mrs. Nees during the snow days to help students out of cars and into the building safely. Mom of Cody, Christi is at Mt. Vernon early every day, checking in with Mrs. Stern’s classroom and the Family Center and pitching in wherever needed.

Christi is a wonderful help to our class and me this year. She’s warm and friendly and is willing to help us in any way she can. — Jenny Stern

A coffee card, compliments of Dutch Bros. at 42nd and Main, is only a small token of appreciation for all Christi does for Mt. Vernon teachers and students.
