Felicitations to Angie Gilbert! Certified Employee of the Month for February. Angie is a Consulting Teacher for Support Services. Angie is from Jerome and she chose her career to empower others. She gains inspiration from her grandparents and is described as passionate. She enjoys gardening, preserving, and audio books. She would like to be remembered as a kind person that people can trust. Her best day on the job was when she was recognized for her efforts by being named Employee of the Month. Supervisor Note: Angie is a dedicated leader who excels in sharing her expertise, fostering professional growth and equipping our Support Services team with the tools and knowledge needed for collective success. She has gone above and beyond by stepping in to support schools when consulting teachers are unavailable and has taken the lead in training staff on 504s, IEPs, and clerical procedures. Additionally, she has worked closely with private schools and preschools to ensure seamless operations. Ms. Gilbert embodies professionalism in every aspect of her work. Her ability to identify challenges and guide teams toward effective solutions is truly outstanding. Colleagues frequently seek her guidance—not only for her extensive knowledge but also for the meaningful relationships she builds with those around her. What truly sets Angie apart is her ability to connect with staff, colleagues, parents, and students, making each individual feel valued and included. She leads with an approach that inspires collaboration rather than authority-driven compliance. Her genuine care for others is evident in every interaction, allowing her to address difficult issues with tact and diplomacy, always prioritizing the best interests of students and the organization.

Kudos to Tom Vela! Head Custodian at Magic Valley High School and February’s Classified Employee of the Month. Tom is from Burley, Idaho and he chose his career because he likes the routine. He draws his inspiration from his father, he likes board games and history. Someday he would like to visit Europe! A word that best describes him is quiet and he would like to be remembered as a nice guy. His favorite day on the job is every Custodian Appreciation Day. Principal Note: Tom is the best custodian any school could ask for. He is constantly going above and beyond to make MVHS a clean, safe, and inviting place for all to be. He builds relationships with staff and students and is an essential part of who we are at MVHS. Tom is amazing!
