Three more Liberty Redhawks were honored Oct. 8 by the Liberty Central School Board with Excellence in Service Awards.

Samantha Davis

Samantha Davis, a typist at Liberty Elementary School, was recognized for her willingness to help and that she is always smiling. “I could not do my job if it was not for her constant assistance,” her nominator said. “She is caring not only for staff but also all about the students!”

Ben Abrams

Ben Abrams, a special education teacher and facilitator at Liberty Middle School, was recognized for his leadership, knowledge and going beyond what is needed.

“He is a true asset to the Special Education Program at the Middle School and we are lucky to have him,” a nominator said. “Plus … he does magic tricks!”

Another nominator said he is able to keep students engaged, and  “makes learning social studies interesting and fun.”

Kellie White

Kellie White, a guidance counselor and co-director of Guidance, “is a very knowledgeable and organized and compassionate counselor that takes pride in her work,” her nominator said.

Her ability to accommodate students’ needs, with a clear head and a smile on her face no matter the situation was also recognized.

“I respect her immensely,” the nominator said.

Each month, staff members nominate others they believe are going above and beyond, be it a single act of excellence or kindness or a continuous work ethic.

We congratulate these employees on their awards.
