In Memory of Coach Carey
Teacher of a Lifetime
|
Coach Carey was voted Teacher of the Month of January by his peers. Comments from teachers include: "He was an awesome teacher." "He deserves this for everything he did at MP over his years of service." "The original CHAMP!" "The ultimate CHAMP!" "He gave his life to this place and deserves this final recognition." "I think we all agree that he would deserve this award more than anyone. He went above and beyond what he was required to do at any time." "The Man, the Myth, the Legend. He will be missed." "For being the eternal CHAMP!" "He was an absolute legend that deserves to be honored in so many ways." "He gave his life to this school." "Coach Cary gave MP his all - each and every day." |

Congratulations Vanessa Walker
January Support Staff of the Month
|
Ms. Walker was selected by her peers for this honor. She has worked as a custodian at MP since 2017. She has a fun loving family who loves to have fun, cook, and entertain. She said her family loves people and to help others who are in need. Her favorite part about her job is working with the staff and being around the students. In her spare time she enjoys shopping, dancing, cleaning, and tasting and trying new foods. She also enjoys decorating. If she could go back in time, she would like to go back to the year 2000. "I always wanted to go to New York." If she didn't have to sleep, she would use the extra time to travel, shop, and spend time with her family. People usually come to her when they need a babysitter, or need help cleaning up. She said that her family, especially her daughter (Chimere), has influenced her life the most. What keeps her up at night? The TV! She enjoys meeting people. She enjoys talking and getting to know others. She is willing to help with whatever is needed. "I'm very free hearted and love children. I love to laugh!" |
