He's going to introduce some of our new hires. Thank you, Mr. Fernaro. Good evening, everybody. Um, as you see, we've got kind of a full house tonight. I'm excited to introduce uh a bunch of our new staff. Some of which we'll be voting on this evening and some were approved in May. So, I'll let our principles introduce start with Mr. Lynn. You can introduce your uh your new crew. >> Thank you for that introduction, Mr. Fetch. Um well, I'm excited to be here. Um just kind of juxtaposing the retirees with our our new faces coming here tonight. So, we're so excited.
003Uh, you know, one thing that we're blessed and fortunate, uh, with in Mayfield is to have the resources to hire the very best, the very brightest, and this year's, uh, pool was no exception. So, uh, without further ado, like to call some people up and introduce them to the Mayfield family. So, uh, first, Caitlin Bank, would you come on up? Let's welcome Kaitlin. Welcome to the family. Uh, so Kaitlyn has a couple years of teaching experience at Streetsboro High School and came highly recommended. She went to Ohio University. Goats. Absolutely. Uh, and Kaitlin will be an intervention specialist uh for us at Mayfield High School. So, we're extremely uh fortunate and just welcome her to the family. So, congratulations, Kaitlin. Absolutely. Our next new choir is Isabella Estifine. Come on up, Isabella. So, a quick
004story about Isabella and her her hiring was quick. We were in the the midst and trying to get the best social studies teacher at Mayfield High School. I interviewed Isabella on a Friday. She was at the beach. Where were we at? Sarasota with the family on Zoom on a Friday. She was lights out. I mean, contagious energy as you will find. And she was the right person for the job. We had her in the building on Monday and we had a job offer on Monday evening. So, we're so fortunate to have her joining our social studies department at Mayfield High School. And I will tell you, going through the interview process as a young person who taught for many years, I don't know that I was as prepared for any interview ever as Isabella was
005for her. So, she was awesome. So, congratulations, Isabella. We're so lucky. Bobby Goff, where are you, sir? Come on up. So, uh, you know, I so fortunate to have Bobby back in the Mayfield family. Uh, Bobby's connected to Mayfield in a myriad of ways. Um, I had the pleasure and good fortune of being Bobby's head principal at Twinsburg High School. Uh, we parted way ways for a couple years as I came back to Mayfield and once I knew that we had an opening, I knew that this was the guy that we had to get back in the chair. So, he is going to be a rock star at Mayfield High School. the relationships that I saw in one year at Twinsbury that he can build with with students and he is such a fantastic English
006teacher. We're blessed to have him and we're thankful that he's coming back to the Mayfield family. Congratulations. Come on up. Let's give her a round of applause. This is a full circle moment. Uh I also had the privilege to work with Jill in Twinsburg. uh she is a highly decorated business teacher. Um you know one of the tasks that we uh gave our business teaching candidates uh this year was to go through our course of study and say how would you revamp it? How would you make it more modern? How would you create a scope and sequence for kids to move through highly vetted business uh you know electives and Jill did that so well. We're so blessed to have her come here reinvigorate some of our business offerings and also Jill was an MHS
007grad back in the day. That's right. All right. So, uh, and happy to welcome her sister here, Megan Sarah, who teaches in Excel Tech. So, it's a family affair here in Mayfield if you haven't gotten the idea. And Jill, went to BGSU, so she's a Falcon and she's coming back to teach business at Mayfield High School. So, welcome back to the panel. >> Hi, I'm Jim McLaclin. I am the principal at U Mayfield Middle School. We have two awesome um new hires and kind of what Mr. Lynn said. Going through the process of interviewing, they were really great candidates. Um something that I always loved going through the interview process was just having a good vibe and energy. Um and they really brought that. It's always good to get new blood in the building and
008and get us thinking outside of the box. I'm going to start with Khloe Dobbins. If you could come up, please. Chloe just recently graduated from University of Akran. She is going to be a seventh grade social studies teacher on the warrior team. Um something that stuck out to our team when we were doing interviews is her passion. And we asked um Chloe, why did you want to become a teacher? And her answer really blew us away. She really gave specific examples about how teachers that she had influenced her. Um, so I know you you will do the same and we're excited to have you at the middle school. Welcome to the family, please. Um, Adri George is the next one. Adri is going to be our sixth grade intervention specialist on the All-Star team. She
009graduated from the University of Mount Union. Um, what really stood out to me when speaking with Avery was her leadership skills. She was a two two-year captain of the softball team. Fun fact, she has a lot of uh broke a lot of records at um University of Mount Union where she graduated from, including the most doubles in school history, which is um what stood out to me and her interview was I asked her to describe her student teaching experience and she said, "It was amazing. I got to love on kids for free, which I thought was such a cool answer. Um, I do not I did not hire anyone that I've taught before, but I did realize that at my age I could almost be like your parents, which is kind of crazy. Um, but
010anyways, welcome to the family. We're so excited to have you. Yeah. >> All right. I am Sean Kmer. I'm a principal at Lander Elementary and I have the honor of welcoming Tara Kelly onto the stage here. So, come on up, Tara. >> So, Tara's joined by her beautiful family here and um you know, we have uh this this huge position to fill. you know, guidance counselor is it takes a very special person to fill that role. And uh as everyone knows, it was, you know, being vacated by Rebecca Schmidt leaving. And so me moving into this role, you know, first year as a as the head principal, I was like, I know I need to, you know, hit a home run here. And I I know we absolutely did it. Um just in that in
011that interview that we had, the first interview, it was so clear that you are the the perfect person for the job and really really looking forward to working with you. So, um, she's going to be, like I said, our guidance counselor at Lander. Um, Tara was an did her undergrad at John Carroll and her master's degree through Niagara University. Uh, after years of experience in Colorado Springs and North Royal, we're very excited to welcome her here. >> Thank you. >> Come on up. Hi, I'm Ally Tone. I'm the principal for Milidge and I have the pleasure of welcoming Clay to the Millidge family next year. We're so excited to have him. Um Clay graduated 2020 from Edinburghough University. He no this year 2020 from Mayfield. He's a graduate from Mayfield in 2020. He graduated from
012Edinburgh this year. Um one of the things that we're most excited about for Clay is Mayfield is if you haven't picked up is all about family. Not only is he a graduate here, but he coaches at the middle school. He also coaches swim team in Highland Heights. So, our kids are seeing him all over the community already and they're always already saying like, "We want to have Clay as our teacher. We want to have Mr. Cunningham." And one of the most important things that he, you know, shined in his interview as well is that those relationships with kids are what carries you through and really makes an impact because we know that kids learn from kids that they trust and feel safe within the classroom. Um, we're so lucky to have you and to welcome
013you to be a part of our family. You can wear shorts to school. and the other male teacher in our building are like, "We can wear shorts." I'm like, "It's totally exciting. It's hot in in school when you're teaching." Um, so welcome. If you need anything, we're all here for you. And um, as you know, it's a great place to be. Congrats. Well, congratulations everybody and welcome. Glad you came here. Glad you came with your families. how we look forwarding look forward to seeing what you're going to do and how you're going to make Mayfield even better than what we are now.
