At Pagels Elementary School, the staff ensures that each child enters the school knowing they are cared for and heard. This begins with a greeting of "Welcome to Pagels" at the door and doesn't end until the last child has boarded the bus. Parents are welcomed inside to celebrate their child's successes as they are recognized for their accomplishments. Evening celebrations are widely attended because at Pagels, it isn't just a school, but a community. Pictured here are Jordan (ACES Behavior Tech), Felicia Soderlund (ACES BCBA), Joanne Guthrie (Social Worker), and Alison McBride (School Psych). #mentalhealthawarenessmonth
