RIMSD#41 Parent of the Month for August

The district's F.A.C.E (Family and Community Engagement) has started a new initiative to recognize parents/guardians and a RIMSD school who are making a positive impact in our school district and community. 
 
Parent/Guardian of the Month
Schools can nominate a parent/guardian who goes above and beyond to support the needs of children, our school, and our community. The winner receives a gift card, a bunt cake, and a sign that can be displayed outside their residence. 
 
Sandra Greenwood - parent of the month

Sandra volunteers her time to participate and support the work of our PIE affinity group.  She attends community events and is enthusiastic about sharing our mission and vision with other parents and guardians.  She also planned/communicated and coordinated an info/ help table at her building's unpack your backpack.
