RVMS nominated our Art/Social Studies teacher, Kim Morgan, for teacher recognition at the Apache County Fair. In addition to teaching, she is our yearbook advisor, and a leader in our school in every way, plus volunteers her time as the high school dance team coach. She demonstrates outstanding character, kindness, and strong work ethic and makes an incredible difference with her students every day. She goes above and beyond for her students and our school, often doing the little things behind the scenes that may not always receive recognition. Her positive attitude, dedication, and genuine care for students and coworkers make a lasting impact on our school and our culture. Every year, she submits her student art work to the fair and the kids love to bring their parents and show it off. She displays student art work around our building and it truly creates a personalized atmosphere in our school. She has an art show at our local Evening of the Arts Talent Show and also in our school each semester. She also helped create a mural on the back of our concession stand at the football field and it looks amazing! Kim Morgan is exactly the kind of educator we want to celebrate, someone who quietly shows up, works hard, supports others, and makes a difference every day. We are incredibly grateful for everything she does! Go Elks! Thank you to the Apache County Fair for recognizing educators who make such a meaningful impact. ❤️

RVMS Heart of the Herd award this week was passed on from Laurie Gardner to Groundskeeper, Nathan Pulsipher. Laurie says she nominated Nathan, "because the school grounds are looking amazing thanks to all of his hard work. Even though his duties take him to other schools to help, he consistently keeps everything here looking its best. I often catch him hurrying from one task to the next, yet whenever I ask for help, he always responds with a positive, willing attitude." He works hard for our school and we appreciate him! Congratulations Nathan!
