🎉 Elmwood #322 December Community Member of the Month🎉

Emily Brunnelson exemplifies what it means to serve a community with heart, humility, and an eye for excellence. As the President of the Elmwood Elementary Parents Club, she goes above and beyond to ensure every event is successful, meaningful, and seamlessly organized. Her attention to detail, often done quietly behind the scenes, creates experiences that our students and families will remember for years to come.

Beyond her leadership in the Parents Club, Emily dedicates countless volunteer hours to the Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, and several other nonprofit and community-run events throughout Elmwood. She never seeks recognition for the hard, often thankless work she does, yet her impact is visible everywhere. Many of Elmwood’s most successful projects and events bear the mark of her commitment, creativity, and care.

Emily’s service is a shining example of what makes Elmwood special. She embodies integrity, selflessness, and community pride in everything she does.

She truly demonstrates The Trojan Way, join us in congratulating Emily for being recognized as the December Community Member of the Month!🧡🖤

Elmwood Named a Featured School at the RSAC Conference! 🧡🖤

Elmwood was recognized as one of only five Featured Schools in the entire state at the Raising Student Achievement Conference in Oak Brook, IL! This honor celebrates our 2-year professional development initiative focused on teacher health and wellness and mentorship for new teachers. 🌟

Our JH Special Education teacher Mrs. Lane Hampton and Dr. Kristen Strom, who developed and led the series, presented a powerful session titled:
“Beyond the Classroom: Empowering New Teachers Through Mentorship and Wellness.” 🎤✨

Their session highlighted:
🧘‍♀️ The importance of supporting teacher well-being
🤝 How mentorship strengthens new teacher confidence and success
🌱 The lasting, positive impact this initiative has on teachers—both in and beyond the classroom

We are incredibly proud of our staff and grateful for their leadership, dedication, and commitment to The Trojan Way.

A term to contemplate - Sonder.

"Sonder is the feeling that hits when you look at a crowd and understand that the person next to you, the driver in the car, or the figure in the window has a life as significant and detailed as yours, full of its own joys, struggles, and central dramas. "
