Kirkman honored as September Employee of the Month

It is with pleasure that we honor Amor Kirkman, Program Assistant in the Special Education department at Monte Vista School, as the September 2018 Employee of the Month.

Amor has been an outstanding employee with the department for more than six years. She fulfills her duties and tasks with grace and skill.

Compliments often pour in from other staff members and departments regarding Monte Vista’s timely and accurate submission of payroll timesheets, student attendance, accounts payable and many other areas. The department has implemented several of Amor’s tracking and processing systems as models for staff training.

“She is always ahead of the game and ready to take care of business in the most kind, professional and helpful manner,” said Andrea Soto, Accountant with the SELPA/Special Education department and Amor’s nominator for Employee of the Month. “I can always count on her to take care of whatever is needed from beginning to end.”

Amor’s love for the students is what feeds her spirit and success. She always makes it a priority to be warm and welcoming to everyone that passes through the office at Monte Vista, including students, parents and colleagues.

“Monte Vista is my family,” said Amor. “Our students spend more time at school than home. When I work with them I see their potential. It’s so rewarding to experience their progress.”
