Mrs. Joyce Miller is a dedicated paraprofessional who clearly loves what she does. She brings a positive energy to the classroom every day. What makes her extra special is her willingness to jump in whenever help is needed. Mrs. Miller never waits to be asked; she simply sees a way to be useful and steps up, making sure everyone around her feels supported. Thank you Mrs. Miller!

As we wrap up Assistant Principal Appreciation Week, our Principals would like to share a few words on how much they mean to Dixon Public Schools.

Mr. Shaner: "The DHS Assistant Principals do a wonderful job helping to ensure our students and staff are supported each day"

Mr. Magnafici: "Ms. Henegar is a steady, student-centered leader who builds strong relationships with staff and students while keeping a clear focus on growth, support, and success for all. Her positive presence and commitment to doing what is best for kids makes a lasting impact on our school each and every day.

Mrs. Downie brings energy, compassion, and a solution-focused mindset to Reagan Middle School, always going above and beyond to support students and staff. Her dedication to creating a positive, supportive environment helps make RMS a great place to learn and grow."

Mr. Sagel: "Mrs. Mitchell is smart, caring, dedicated, and continually puts others before herself.  She is a big part of the reason Madison is a great place to teach, learn, and grow!  Thank you Mrs. Mitchell!"

Mrs. Thorpe: "There are people who stand beside you, and then there are people who anchor you, the ones who balance you in a way you didn't even realize you needed. Kelli Full is that person. If I am the left, she is the right. Where I bring perspective, she brings the counterbalance that makes the whole picture clearer. What makes Kelli exceptional isn't just her leadership or skill; it's the steadiness in the middle of the storm. She doesn't shy away from the hard days; she walks straight into them with me. She doesn't endure the battle; she helps transform it. We stand together and that makes us both stand stronger, think better, and lead in a way that makes a difference."

Mrs. Glenn: "Miss Bus comes to school every day with a positive attitude and a smiling face. She never hesitates to help calm a student or assist a staff member. Our school is a better place because of her!"

Mrs. Huffman: "Mrs. Withrow is dedicated to the students of TJD. She creates a fun, positive environment for all students and staff. She is a team player and is resourceful when difficult situations arise. She is my "right hand" who works cooperatively with me to solve any situation. The students, families, and staff at TJD are lucky to have her as Dean of Students."

From the rest of us, thank you for everything you do here at Dixon Public Schools! #BePurple
