Volunteer of the Year is a special honor for the volunteer that stands out during one individual school year. All of our volunteers are amazing and necessary, but it’s important to honor someone that has done so much this year for many of us as well as the students. Our volunteer of the year received the most nominations both from faculty and parents. For myself, I feel she is a volunteer that will go in the trenches with you all the while making you feel like the hero. She makes everyone around her strive to be better and she always makes work feel like play.

 Hedgcoxe is lucky to have her. 

~ Tracy Lake, PTA President ~

Here are a few of the nomination quotes:

“Her constant dedication and ever-present smile are a big part of what makes our school special.”
“She always, ALWAYS has a positive attitude and a Winning Smile!!!!!”
“She is uplifting and filled with Hedgcoxe spirit!”
“She goes the distance for all teachers and staff in the building.”
“She gives so much of herself, not just to her children, but for every child in the building; ensuring them a fun year!”
