Please join us in congratulating the November Golden Apple Award of Excellence winner, Tami Schleusner! Here's what the nominator had to say: "Tami has gone above and beyond. She cares for the kids and does her best to meet their goals. She is empathetic and caring to those she helps. She's a great coworker and an even better leader. She helps me when I get stuck on a problem and goes out of her way to help those around her. I remember when I was in school and she taught me STRIVE. I never expected to work with her but I'm grateful I am because of her work ethic and happy to see her because of her personality. She is an amazing person to work with and a great role model to look up to. I would gladly work with her forever if I could." Congratulations, Tami! #aisd #aisdproud #goldenappleawardofexcellence #excellenceisthestandard #wayiwah #metlakatla #alaska #employeeappreciation
