Impactful: 

It’s time to take a moment to recognize and appreciate the person across the hallway from you.  In my case, I want to take a minute to share my gratitude to Spectrum’s facilities and grounds crew staff.

I was speaking with Spectrum’s Executive Director, Dan DeBruyn, earlier this week and we ended up in a conversation about the cleanliness and orderliness of our facilities throughout our campus.  We both agreed that through the years we’ve been here at Spectrum, it is the norm to walk through and about our facilites and find that they are consistently kept in top notch shape.  The credit here belongs to our facilities and grounds crews. They work tirelessly to adapt to the ever changing priorities that constantly shift in our schools and on our campus.  Their list of tasks they play a key role in is vast and includes sporting events, music concerts, test administration, after school hour meetings of all kinds, and parent/teacher conferences, just to name a few.  And don’t forget, all of this is on top of managing the every day impact 850 middle and high school students’ use has on our buildings.  It is truly a neverending job and every member of our crew deserves our gratitude!

A special “thank you” is in order for the following people who make up Spectrum’s facilities and grounds crew staff:

  • David Steinhauser
  • Jeremy Johnson
  • Brent Anderson
  • Bethany Bradley
  • Bret Brown
  • Krisi Diekman
  • Cosette Fust
  • Ethan Guse
  • Nancy Houghtelin
  • Frank Martinez
  • Mustafa Zaidi
  • Dan Zimmerman

This week, or next, please take a moment to thank the person across the hall from you!  They deserve it.
