RED APPLE AWARD Barb Friedt is one of the most amazing teachers I have had the privilege of knowing. Every aspect of her classroom furthers her students’ learning. She does this with such natural ease as though it is an extension of who she is. Her kids remember her, her way of reaching each one of them and as a trusting person to come to in time of need. Barb exudes fairness, professionalism and passion for children. With Barb however, it goes so much further. Her colleagues said: “Very few people have touched my life the way Barb has! The one word that best describes this beautiful lady is STRONG! Barb has a confident strength that permeates throughout her relationships with students, peers and all of those who are blessed to call her, "friend!" She can make you believe you can do something when you truly believe you can't! I am completely grateful to have the daily opportunity to work with Barb and 100% blessed to call her my dear friend!!!!” “Barb is such a professional and always shares ideas and technology knowledge with us. She is athletic - I mean super athletic - and puts us all to shame! She is also a great mom who dedicates her time with family, often traveling across state on a weekend just to see one of the kids' games. She is strong in her faith and a woman of conviction.” We are all better people by knowing Barb Friedt and there is no better recipient for this Red Apple Award. GOLDEN APPLE AWARD It is our pleasure this evening to recognize two individuals who have served the children of the Boise School District for almost 12 and 18 years respectively. These people are outstanding assistants who go above and beyond their assignment. These individuals serve on the front line for public inquiries, unsatisfied patrons, and sometimes angry parents. They handle confrontational situations with great skill and calming words. They have the ability to listen and often diffuse the problem, or to ascertain by whom the concern needs to be addressed. These people work with extremely confidential information while remaining discreet and supportive. These individuals are able to assist principals, District directors, and anyone else who comes to them with questions and they are always prompt with an answer. They are always happy to help and willing to assist with any task. They are top-notch professionals and a joy to work with. Tonight it is our distinct honor to present Golden Apple Awards for November 10, 2014 to Debbie Giudicelli and Melissa Wilson, administrative assistants, District Services Center, for outstanding service to education and for educating today for a better tomorrow.
