The Oswego Community Unit School District 308 Board of Education recognized the May 2022 winners of the PRIDE (Proudly Recognizing Individuals Demonstrating Excellence) Recognition Program at their meeting held on Monday, May 17. Prior to their recognition at the Board meeting, Dr. Sparlin went to each building and visited the winners to announce and celebrate their recognition (slide show). The Board of Education implemented this program in the fall of 2015 to recognize, promote and celebrate the many contributions made by teachers and employees across the district.
“The individuals honored and recognized as PRIDE winners not only go above and beyond for our students and schools but they also reflect the true meaning of service,” said Dr. John Sparlin, superintendent of schools. “The board and I are honored to recognize our teachers and our employees through this program for all they do on a daily basis for the success of our students.”
