· Leah Keese of Science 6th grade (via Diana Glynn (Daniel’s mom)): Thank you, Ms. Keese for the beautiful gift that my son made on your class. You didn’t have to do that, but it brought back an elementary moment and was so thoughtful! Have a beautiful break!
· Hellen Barczi, and HHS Student Council of Hendrickson High School (via Christina Griffin): Hellen and the student council are such a joy to work with each year as we plan for the Adopt-a-Child event! This year I got to see firsthand some of the smaller kiddos who were able to participate in this event, and watch how the high school students interacted with them. Everyone seemed to have such a fantastic time during this season of giving, and it really made my heart so happy! Thank you so much for allowing me to be a part of this tradition each year, and for the gifts of appreciation given to the drivers for this event. It means so much to us!!
· Tammy Morrison and Kelby Millhouse of 2nd Grade Northwest Elementary (via Mr. W): Morrison and Millhouse, I want to express my deepest gratitude to both of you for being such amazing, welcoming, and accommodating teachers. The way you have embraced my student from the Essential Academics classroom and made him feel like a valued member of your classrooms during inclusion times is truly remarkable. You both go above and beyond to make learning fun and engaging, always ready to offer the support he needs. Your dedication and patience ensure that he not only learns but also feels confident and included in all activities. It’s clear that you both care deeply about his success, and I’m incredibly grateful for the positive impact you’ve had on his experience in your classrooms. Thank you for making such a difference!

· Stacie Myers of Transportation (via Michael Nave): I recently had to renew my TEA Bus Driver card and Stacie was extremely helpful in getting me registered and tested. The entire process was smooth thanks to her prompt, efficient, and helpful assistance. She's awesome.
· Christina Griffin of Transportation (via Michael Nave): Christina is so accommodating and prompt in helping us with our athletic trips. I sent her a request in an email on a Saturday of Christmas break about an overnight trip we had coming on on Jan. 1st and she responded in minutes with all the help I needed along with valuable information for the upcoming trip. While her job is extremely difficult, her dedication and helpfulness goes above and beyond. We really appreciate her.
· Irene Hernandez and Lily Dominguez of PHS Sr. Exec Admin Associate & Counselor (via Michael Nave): During our staff Christmas luncheon on the last day of the semester, I had to leave during that time to go get a bus for a soccer trip. I asked Irene if there would be any leftovers for me to eat when I got back. Instead of telling me yes, she and Lily Dominguez prepared me a plate that was waiting on me when I returned. Ms. Dominguez even went and got me a tea as I sat down to eat. I know how busy both of them were on that day so I really appreciate the fact that they took the time to make sure I had a meal. Thanks!
· Mr. George Binger of PHS/Special Ed. Dept. (via Miguel Henriquez): For being there when there's a situation with the students. Mr. Binger is the one to call. The students respect and listen to him. He gets the job done. Mr. George Binger deserves recognition with a Pflugerville High School Award.
· Lara Raesz and Chris Lockamy of Timmerman ES (via Anonymous): This is a fun and hardworking admin team! Thanks for all you do!
