“I really look up to her. I’m learning a lot working with her, and I think that’s why she deserves this award. She is a leader in this building,” said Rachael Whelchel, JH math teacher.

During the September school board meeting, Jennifer Drish, Junior High English teacher was recognized by the district for going above and beyond. 

JH Principal Brady Stromquist nominated Drish for the award, “It was a pretty easy selection for me. When I came back - teaching here prior to my current role, I was real excited about working with her. She has a good feel for the district, for the students.” 

“She’s been through lot of things, so she knows good ways to approach students or staff,” said Stromquist.

Superintendent Dr. Carl Johnson implemented the ‘Tiger Talent’ award for:

“...those who model, build and encourage positive character qualities - speaking into students’ lives by word and deed that will resonate for years to come and help guide them to become the leaders and contributing community members of tomorrow.” 

Drish received a golden metal apple with “Tiger Talent” inscribed to commemorate his dedication to Sherrard Schools.

Junior High students Justine Elsbury and Hunter Shemek anchored the 'Good News' report for the school board update, district-wide.
