Health Nut of the Month
-
May 2022: Karin Sparkman
Congratulations to Karin Sparkman, 1st grade teacher at McAuliffe K-8, for being nominated and selected as our Health Nut of the month for May!
Here is what her nominator had to say:
"Karin flies under the radar as a Healthy Nut! When at school, she always makes good choices with what she eats, and she promotes these good habits with her students. For class parties, she has parents focus more on providing fruits and vegetables than on Twinkies and hand-staining cupcakes. Aside from this, Karin is a professional participant in all wellness programs offered by the district, never missing any of them. She also takes part in our running club for 1st through 5th graders, coming out every Thursday to run with the kids. Lastly, Karin makes it a priority to go for a walk every single day. That is impressive! Clearly, Karin serves as a role model for all kids, fellow staff members, and other adults!"
