They also toured the campus and checked out some new renovations that have taken place. Great job to these students for taking steps towards their college search and working on making a post-secondary plan!

Our Special Olympic Robotic Team is working on a group project that combines technology and the arts to help engage others or increase participation in something they love to do. The team decided to create a logo and a newscast to encourage more students become Unified Buddies! This past week students worked with CDCSD marketing coordinator Laura Miers to create a logo for Unified Buddies and with Producer Creighton Fox and Multimedia Journalist Larry Goodwin from KWQC TV 6 to learn about reporting and putting together a news story. Take a look at the new logo and photos from the TV 6 visit. We can’t wait to see how the rest of the project turns out!

💜.💛 We are excited to announce that Laurie Wildes has been chosen as the very first Central DeWitt Community School District Employee of the Month!
Mrs. Wildes has been with the CDCSD for over 30 years, even retiring once and coming back when help was needed. She has worn many hats over the years including kitchen manager, job coach, associate for the BD program, junior class sponsor, bleacher supervisor, middle school coach, and this year, a speech class monitor.
What stands out about Mrs. Wildes isn’t just the number of responsibilities she has taken on over the years, but her positive attitude, willingness to help without hesitation, and her unwavering dedication. In 28 years of supervising the bleachers at football games, she has only missed one Friday night to attend her daughter’s rehearsal dinner.
According to CDHS Industrial Technology Teacher Tom Prombo, Mrs. Wildes tries every day to make our schools a better place by giving help where needed.
“She is an old-school, hardworking lady whose efforts and caring show in the school,” Mr. Prombo said.
Mrs. Wildes makes it very clear that her number one priority is the students and their well-being. She has always felt comfortable interacting with students and does whatever she can to make sure they have a great school experience.
Freshman Hailee Peters acknowledged how Mrs. Wildes shows genuine concern for students by asking how they are doing in the hallways and freshman Patrick Soesbe said Mrs. Wildes “is the G.O.A.T (Greatest Of All Time).”
We couldn’t agree more! Thank you Mrs. WIldes for all you have done and continue to do for CDCSD!
We received over 100 nominations for Employee of the Month and will be featuring the other nominees in the #SaberSuperstars next week. So, stay tuned to see all the great ways employees are making a difference!
