Mr. Brad Driver, please. [Applause] I'd also like to extend a welcome to Brad's wife, Becca, and his kids, Rayan and Kinsley, who are here with us this evening. So, shout out to the back row. Good to see you guys. Brad is a passionate and dedicated educator who consistently puts Mayfield first. He can be found staying late to rehearse with his students, representing the school at Friday night football games and parades, or stepping in to assist his colleagues whenever needed. His commitment to the success and well-being of our students is evident in everything he does. Patri, fellow music department teacher and assistant band director said, "Selfless,

010diligent, and compassionate. These are all words I would use to describe Brad Driver. During my first day student teaching at Mayfield, I immediately noticed the tight-knit bond in the band program between the students, booster parents, families, and staff. I was truly blown away by the positive culture and community Brad has cultivated. Jen Stevenson, department chair and colleague, sums up Brad's devotion beautifully. Brad Triber is a passionate educator who truly cares about the success of his students in the music program at Bayfield. Brad spends countless hours outside the school day rehearsing with his students in order to help them succeed in the many performances they have each year. From my own perspective, I can attest to Brad's reliability. Whenever I call him, before I even finish asking, he's already helping. Brad is ready, willing, and able

011to help with excellence. Brad even adds extra conditioner to his beard for home football games in hopes of getting the win. It's true. Brian Fcher, one of Brad's music department colleagues, also appreciate Brad's resourcefulness and personal touch. I appreciate his ability to solve nearly any problem that correlates to another thing I admire, which is how good he is with people. Whenever something needs to get done, he knows exactly who to talk to and how best to accomplish the goal. And he knows everyone's name. I wish I had that memory. Brad Triver's unwavering dedication, leadership, and genuine care truly set him apart as an outstanding educator. On behalf of the Mayfield High School community and the Mayfield community, I'd like to express our deep gratitude for his service and ask that we join together in recognizing

012Mr. Driver for his extraordin extraordinary contributions to our district. Congratulations, Brad. [Applause] Brillin, Kinsley, and Becky, you want to come up for a picture? All right. You want to get on this guy? Look at that guys. At this moment, I would like to call up Mrs. Deanna Ellen, director of innovative and consortium programming at Mfield High School to honor our next staff member, Lydia Lavel. Mrs. standing back here. It is my distinct honor tonight to recognize an exceptional member of our Mayfield High School family, Miss Lydia Label. Lydia serves as a paraprofessional at Mayfield High School, but her contributions to our school and our students go far beyond that job title. She is a standout employee, someone who consistently goes above and beyond for both um our students and all of the programs that support.

013Lydia is a person you can always count on. She's not only a dedicated and skilled professional, but she's also a go-to point person in our building. Whether it's assisting with a challenging situation, supporting a student's need, or helping out a colleague, Lydia is always happy to step in and lend a hand. One of the qualities that truly sets Lydia apart is her proactive approach. even in the middle of a hallway, in the middle of a school day. She's not just bringing up problems, she's bringing solutions. She is thoughtful, creative, and always focused on what's best for our students and our school community. Lydia's commitment to our students and programs extends well beyond the school day. She can often be found after hours lending her time and energy to activities like perfect pause, our special homecoming,

014and prom dances. These events are meaningful experience to our students, and Lydia plays a key role in making them a success. Teacher Mrs. Kathleen Morgan says, "Lydia supports perfect paws, banner buddies, friends clubs, homecoming, and prom for our students with special needs. Lydia is that one ina- million staff member who combines her strength, knowledge, training, expertise, and compassion to make an impactful difference in the high school experience for our most special students. What makes us proud and honored to be called a Mayfield Wildcat is Lydia. She exemplifies what it means to be just that, a wildat. MHS teacher Mr. Jeremy Pillow says, "When I started at the high school 3 years ago, she was very supportive to me. She noticed my strengths, but at the same time helped me to learn and understand parts of

015the job that I've never done before. Lydia, you are an invaluable part of our team, and we are so fortunate to have you. Please join me in congratulating and celebrating Miss Lydia Lavell because she truly makes a difference in the lives of our students and our school community." Lydia Heat. Heat. Do you feel okay? And now I have Jack. All right, there we go. And now I have the distinguished pleasure of honoring Miss Christine C. Craig. Chris, please come on up. Let's welcome her to the stage. Chris and daughter who are in attendance with us here tonight. So, welcome. Mayfield High School is built on tradition, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to students. And no one embodies these values more than Mrs. Christine C. Gray, a proud Mannyfield graduate who truly bleeds green. Chris has

016been a pillar of our school community, shaping the lives of countless students and colleagues throughout remarkable career. As the self-appointed quote mom of MHS, Chris has provided expert advice, counsel, and guidance to so many. Always offering her wisdom with honesty and heart. A straight shooter who never misses words. She leads with integrity and always does what is best for her students and the Mayfield school community. Chris doesn't just talk about school spirit. She is school spirit. From coaching cheerleading early in her career to advising United Way and Cat's cabinet for many years, her passion for Mayfield is unmatched. She single-handedly revived the powderpuff game, turning it into a beloved homecoming tradition that will continue for years to come. Beyond her contributions outside the classroom, Chris has been an excellent teacher in the social studies department.

017Her students speak of her thoughtful approach, her dedication to their success and the genuine care she shows every single one of them. Social studies colleagues Aaron Osborne and Sylvia Shepard State. Throughout her career at Mayfield, Chris not only taught her students social studies, but also nurtured the new teachers entering both the department and the building. She was quick to take new teachers under her wing, show us the ins and outs of the school, lend a listening ear, and fiercely support us. Former student and now colleague Nicole Dasco states just how impactful Chris has been to her life and the lives of her students by sharing. I was placed in Mrs. C. government class when I transferred to Mayfield my junior year from a rival school not to be named. What stood out most in Mrs.

018Dra's class was how much I wanted to learn in her class and that was all because of her. She had a way of breaking down tough concepts and making them make sense. Her impact her impact on my life didn't end in high school. I actually met my husband in her class. Hello. Years later, my own children were fortunate enough to learn from her as well. She has touched multiple generations of my family and she will always hold a special place in our hearts. As she prepares to retire at the end of this school year, Mayfield will feel the loss of an irre irreplaceable educator, mentor, and friend. While we will deeply miss her presence, we are excited for her as she embarks on the next chapter, spending more time with her husband Dan, recently retired

019elementary teacher in Independence, and her wonderful daughters, Kylie and Cassidy. Please join me in recognizing Chrissy Gray for extraordinary contributions to Mayfield High School and Mayfield City School District. [Applause] Thank you. Thank you. Thought I forgot. Thank you. [Applause] Thank you, Mr. Lynn. Congratulations on your day. Congratulations, everybody. Uh we're going to call up Mr. Nate Mishko for more recognition. Thank you. Good evening. Good good evening everyone. Uh my name is Nate Bishop. I'm the director of XLT Tech. First I want to thank uh Dr. Barnes and the board for allowing us to present tonight. Uh it's always fun when we get to brag about XLT. So if I could have our four students please come up all together. Uh so about a month ago um we took Excel Tech. We took a team of

020approximately uh 53 students down to Columbus for the state skills USA uh state championships. And out of those 53 stand right in front here so everybody can see you. Um and out of those competitions we were able to have 12 state champions from all of our students. Four of those state champions uh in their competitions are Mayfield students and they're here with us tonight. To put this in perspective, uh there are about 4,000 students who compete at the state level in uh in Skills USA. So this that puts these four students in the top 1% of career tech students in the state of Ohio. So we'd like to recognize Mista Nyak. She is a student in our CAD engineering program. She won a state championship in the principles of engineering technology competition. She will be

021going on to the University of Cincinnati where she will study mechanical engineering. We'd like to recognize David Wei. He is also a member of our CAD engineering program. He won a state championship in the additive manufacturing competition. A side note of competition that I will say uh Mr. Schmidt is in the in the audience. If you would just wave, Mr. Schmidt. Uh he's pretty much got a monopoly on this competition as we wins uh states in that competition every year. But David uh again, additive manufacturing. He will be continuing his education at Kent State University. Well, he will also be majoring in mechanical engineering. So, excuse me, mechanical engineering technology. And then we have uh Jamie Wayer. Jamie is a member of our interactive media program. Uh he and his brother uh Tommy Wner both

022uh won state championships in the web design contest. Jamie will be uh furthering his education at Cleveland Institute of Art and he will be majoring in graphic design. And Tommy will be going to John Carroll University and majoring in computer science. I still don't know the difference between the two of them. So, but that said, uh congratulations and and again to put this in perspective, these four uh at the end of the month in June are going to go down to Atlanta and they are going to compete against uh in the national competition and approximately about 10,000 students will be in Atlanta competing. So hopefully at the end of June, the four of them will come back as national champions. So congratulations And after this photo, a family is here. Please come on out. Feel

Our assistant superintendent, Mr. Steve Net, who retired. Steve began his tenure as assistant superintendent in 2018 under the then then direction of superintendent Mr. Keith Kelly. From the very beginning, he brought a level of steadiness, professionalism, and a heart that

035is rare in any organization. When I returned to Mayfield to serve as superintendent, I was thrilled to have the opportunity to work alongside Steve. You see, when I was an athletic director, I often called on Steve, who was the athletic director of Bully East, for advice. So, I was very familiar with who he was and what he brought to the table. Here at Mayfield, he has truly been a rock for our administrative team. always steady, always reliable, always driven by what's best for our students and staff. His confidence is unmatched and his ability to navigate complex challenges with calm and clarity has been a gift to all of us. What I admire most about Steve is not just his intellect or leadership. It's his deep love and appreciation for people. That's a trait that can't

036be taught. It's something you feel when you work with Steve. Something you see in the way he treats others and something that he has left behind here at Mayfield and our community that would be everlasting. On behalf of the Mayfield Board of Education, myself, our staff, and the entire Mayfield City Schools community, thank you, Mr. Nelick, for your extraordinary service, your steadfast leadership, and your heart. You have made us better and you will be missed. Congratulations on a welldeserved retirement. Thank you, sir. [Applause] Well, the truth is we have some workers. You can't get away that simple. Mr. President, I also like to take a moment to recognize and celebrate several other exceptional leaders in our Mayfield family who are stepping into new roles for the coming school year. First, congratulations to Mr. Jeff Lean

037on his well-deserved promotion to assistant superintendent. I'm extremely excited for Jeff to take on this role. Jeff truly epitomizes what it means to be a Wildcat. as a proud Mayfield graduate and having served as principal of Oaklander Elementary and Maple High School, Jeff brings with him a deep systems level appreciation and understanding of our district. He sees the big picture, understands the culture, and he leads with both passion and purpose. Congratulations, Jeff. I look forward to continuing our work together in your new capacity. Thank you.

Paul, thank you for all you've done and the lives that you've touched and the families that will ever forever cherish your leadership. looking forward to this new chapter. Thank you. I'd also like to congratulate Jaclyn Mclofflin on her promotion to principal of Middle Mayfield Middle School.

Jackie has been instrumental in the middle school success both as an exceptional teacher and as a dedicated assistant principal. She has earned the trust and respect of the staff, students, and family alike. Jackie, what you don't know is I talked to several middle school staff members prior to talking to you and each one

039of them shared without question and without hesitation just how impactful of a leader you are. So, we're excited for you to take on this next chapter at Natefield Middle School and lead us into the future. [Applause] Congratulations. Up and down, church. Finally, congratulations to Shawn Kramer, who will serve as the new principal of Lander Elementary. Shawn is no stranger to learn.

Sean, we're thrilled to see you come into this new role full circle and lead lander into the next chapter. When I talked to Shawn talking about two former coaches, he was equally as fired up as I was. I could tell

040in his eyes that this was a chapter that he was ready to take on. Sean, I also, as you know, talked to several staff members about the possibility of you leaving. Without question, without hesitation, they said he's the guy. So, welcome to your new role. We look forward to all that you're going to do moving forward at L. Congratulations Sean.
