🎉📚 **Celebrating Excellence in Education!** 📚🎉

At our October 12th Board of Education meeting, we were proud to recognize **Chelsea Kienol** for earning her **Certified Academic Language Practitioner (CALP)** certification!

This impressive accomplishment requires **more than 700 hours of specialized training, study, and supervised practicum experience**, as well as passing a rigorous certification exam.

Chelsea's dedication to professional growth reflects her passion for helping children succeed, particularly students with dyslexia who benefit from specialized, structured literacy instruction and therapy.

Her commitment to developing her knowledge and skills will make a meaningful difference in the lives of the children she serves.

❤️🐾 **Congratulations, Chelsea! Thank you for your dedication, hard work, and commitment to maximizing the learning and achievement of every child!**

You are a shining example of **Devil Dog Excellence!**
