Promotion in the Middle School Cafe

Recent graduate Jacky E. demonstrated growth in her leadership skills this past year which led to her promotion to the manager of the Middle School Cafe. Jacky mentored her fellow students in the Cafe and took initiative to meet weekly with middle school students to determine the menus for the week for each class. She also took charge of sending the weekly cafe menu to staff. Jacky also addressed her fellow classmates and staff members about what makes the cafe such a creative and fun place to learn.
