This school year will be the last for Mrs.Phyllis Senters, who has been a paraprofessional in our Applied Skills room. Prior to her 10 years with us at Hamilton, Phyllis worked at a Christian school for two. More amazing, though, is her 35 years at the Community Shelter Workshop (now known as RISE, Inc.). Phyllis says her favorite memories have been playing a word game with George, who sometimes laughs so hard he cries. Phyllis has always known that she wanted to be a teacher, since she was 3 years old. She knew this because whenever she learned something she wanted to share it with others, and that is the quality of a good teacher. If she had to say her favorite part of the job it was watching the spark light up in kids' heads when learning and connecting the dots. Thank you very much Mrs. Senters for all of your time and effort in a life dedicated to serving and helping others. Enjoy your well-deserved retirement!
