Chris Bumpus
Paraprofessional, Morey Middle School
Collaboration
"Chris is always demonstrating Collaboration here at Morey. He builds relationships throughout the entire school by supporting several different areas beyond his required role. He helps out in the main office greeting parents and taking phone calls, he supports students with their academics and SEL, and he collaborates with teachers to support their classroom instruction. Last week, he sent an email that provided resources to engage all members of our team to help support a healthy working environment and team members' social/emotional health. He comes to work with an open mind, and is flexible and adaptable to do the many tasks that are asked of him each and every day."
-- Alison Doyle, Morey Middle School
