Military Trail Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. 334 1 0-4698 Dear Wayne, It is with decidedly mixed emotions that I tender my resignation as a Member of the Palm Beach Gardens School Advisory Board, effective immediately. I can’t tell you and the other Members of the Board how grateful I am for the opportunity to have been a part of such a dynamic organization. There is no more important issue that we face as a community than the education of our children. The dedicated members of the Advisory Board are and will remain instrumental in keeping the community abreast of the issues that the students and faculty members in our school district face everyday. I know that you will continue to make education a top priority in our city. Again, I thank you and the Members of the Board for allowing me to be a part of the education experience in Palm Beach Gardens. Sincerely, John Gardner CC. Eric Jablin Cheryl McQuiston Jennifer Holdt PS. I have accepted a position with WCI Communities, Inc. and will be relocating to the Naples-Bonita Springs area. Let’s stay in touch.

Sports Parking Procedures Contact Us E-mail Access The Eldred Junior-Senior High School is committed to recognizing the special things that our students do! To that end, student recognition has become an integral part of student life. There are now four sfudent recognition programs that any student in grades 7-72 can strive for. ECS CAPS Eldred Central School Community A wards Program for Students Each month of the school year, students who are "caught doing something right" will be recognized by the school community. 15 (plus) students each month will be award recipients and will receive awards from the school and the business community. Additionally, this group of students and their parents will be treated to a special awards breakfast sponsored by the Sullivan County BOCES Career and Technical education program. A breakfast will take place in the career and tech dining hall and will be prepared by students from all over the county. ECS MISAS Most Improved Subject Area Student This program is geared towards students being recognized, in any subject area, for improvement, as per teacher discretion. Each marking period, students, and their parents, will be invited to attend a special breakfast in the cafeteria with the building principal and the Superintendent of Schools. At this breakfast, each student will receive a special certificate for their improvement. Teachers will be asked to keep a close eye on improvement at all student levels of achievement. STUDENT OF THE WEEK This new student recognition program involves students who, on a weekly basis are nominated for committing an act that improves some aspect of the Eldred Junior- Senior High School. Students may be nominated by any school community member. Each week, there will be one student winner. That student will have his or her picture posted next to the principal's office for the entire week. PRINCIPAL'S AWARD FOR PERFECT ATTENDANCE Students who have attained perfect attendance for each marking period will receive special award recognition from the principal. Students who continue to receive perfect attendance throughout their school careers will be recognized and awarded. STUDENT PERSISTENCE AWARD This award took place for the first time in May 2003. The Student Persistence Award was born out of the efforts of individual students and members of the Building Leadership Team who wanted to see a new award that addressed hard- working students who maintained steady grades and exhibited positive behaviors to go along with their hard work. This award will coincide with the ECS MISAS awards ceremony. http://www.eldredschools.org/highschool/idl8.html 1/12/2005 a 2004 Outstanding Senior Student of the Year District School Board of Pasco County Communications Dept.
