2001-2002 School of Excellence

Saunders Middle School received the School of Excellence Award for the first time this year at a celebration for school staff.

Ms. Pat Puttre, principal of Saunders Middle School, was presented a plaque by Mrs. Lucy Beauchamp at the ceremony.

Mrs. Pam Gauch, Associate Superintendent, congratulated a staff member.

Dr. Kelly, Associate Superintendent Alison Nourse-Miller, and Mrs. Lucy Beauchamp presented certificates to staff members.

Ms. Puttre accepted a School of Excellence commemorative flag on behalf of Saunders Middle School at a school board awards ceremony. 

Some of the reasons Saunders Middle School was selected as a School of Excellence are:

• At Saunders Middle School, there is a friendly atmosphere and comfortable learning environment.

• Students are helped in so many ways– such as a homework club, tutorials before and after school, remedial reading and math programs, and teaming of teachers across subject areas.

• Saunders Middle School has small self-contained classes in special education.

• There is frequent communication and teamwork among staff, teachers, students, and parents to ensure the success of students.
