Dorchester School District 4 is delighted to continue its "Everyday Hero" employee recognition program, celebrating the exceptional individuals who play crucial roles in the success of our schools. These hardworking employees often operate behind the scenes, ensuring the smooth functioning of our schools while contributing to the education and well-being of our students. Each month, we shine a spotlight on these dedicated staff members, offering our appreciation for their unwavering commitment. Every "Everyday Hero" receives a certificate of appreciation and a distinguished coin from the Superintendent, a token of the district’s deep gratitude for their remarkable service.
This month, we are honored to recognize three outstanding individuals. The first recipient is Mrs. Gina Sawicki, a 4th-grade math and science teacher at Harleyville Elementary School. She was nominated by Principal Jeremy Wolfgang, who shared his admiration for her dedication and impact:
“I would like to nominate Mrs. Sawicki as an Everyday Hero for her incredible dedication and impact in teaching 4th-grade math and science. Mrs. Sawicki brings not only a deep knowledge of the subjects but also an infectious enthusiasm that makes learning fun and engaging for every student. She has an amazing ability to explain complex concepts in ways that are accessible and exciting, sparking curiosity and a love of learning in all of us.
Beyond the classroom, Mrs. Sawicki shows immense patience, encouragement, and care for each student’s individual growth. Whether it’s offering extra help after school or finding creative ways to connect math and science to real-world applications, she goes above and beyond to ensure every student feels confident and supported in their academic journey. Her positive attitude, innovative teaching methods, and unwavering support make Mrs. Sawicki a true hero in shaping the future of young minds.”
Dorchester School District 4 is proud to honor Mrs. Gina Sawicki and celebrate her unwavering commitment to education and the community. Her exceptional service and passion make her a shining example of what it means to be an Everyday Hero.
