👏 Let's give a round of applause to Gerson Henriquez, a phenomenal volunteer at Samish Elementary! During National Volunteer Week, we want to shine a spotlight on his contributions!
✈️ As a former Air Force member and now a teacher at Verbal Dojo, Gerson brings a wealth of experience and dedication to Samish. From fixing things around the school to training other dads and granddads to be Watch D.O.G.S (Dads of Great Students), Gerson's impact goes beyond the classroom. He's been instrumental in fostering a sense of safety and community within our school walls.
📚 Gerson's involvement hasn't stopped at maintenance tasks. He's stepped up as a long-term substitute, created clubs for Samish students and even assisted in one-on-one teaching roles. His dedication to student learning and engagement is truly amazing.
💖 The positive energy Gerson brings to Samish is infectious. Staff and students alike are thrilled whenever he's around, showcasing the strong sense of community he helps cultivate. 🌟 Gerson embodies the values of honesty, integrity, and hard work, teaching our students the importance of giving back and making their community a better place. 🤝 During a long-term leave replacement, Gerson seamlessly filled in, ensuring no gap in services for the student he supported. His willingness to step in wherever needed is invaluable to our school's success.
🙌 Join us in thanking Gerson Henriquez for his support and commitment to making Samish Elementary a better place for all. We're incredibly grateful for everything he does!
