Today we honor some incredible members of our Rivercrest team: Angie Cullum, LeeAnn Williams, Melissa Sims, Hunter Robinson, and Johnny Fleming (not pictured: Justin Ellis).
These employees were honored with The Rivercrest Hero Award for their heroic actions last school year when they responded quickly to a student in cardiac arrest. Their fast action and teamwork made all the difference, and we are proud to call them Rivercrest Heroes.
Thank you for showing what it means to put students first!
Kris Shinn is the President and
CEO of Willing Ways, an Arkansas-based autism and behavior intervention
consultancy. Inspired by raising his son with autism, Kris has spent over 20 years helping families, educators, and students with practical behavior strategies. He has been presenting to coops across the state this summer, and we are fortunate to have him as a support for our staff this year.
Thank you to Cross Bank for sponsoring lunch for our teachers and staff on their first day back!
