Our November Team Player Tuesday recognitions are Neil Geringer and Tara Keller! 💚🤍🏴☠️
Neil Geringer is a bus driver with the D32 Transportation Department. His nominator said: "Neil is the definition of a team player! He’s always the first to step up when trips need to be covered and never hesitates to lend a hand wherever he’s needed. He juggles a lot during his day routes, but you’d never know it — he always keeps a great attitude and gets the job done. The Transportation Department is absolutely better because of him!"
Tara Keller is a technician with the D32 Maintenance Department. Her nominator said: "She continues to demonstrate a strong work ethic and a commitment to excellence in everything she does. From early morning fixes to last-minute repairs, Tara plays a vital role in keeping our district going strong every single day. We’re incredibly grateful for the pride and care she puts into making our schools better for everyone."
We announce Team Player Tuesday on the third Tuesday every month during the school year. Fill out the form linked below to nominate someone for a future recognition.

The Perryville High School Silver Dagger Players invite everyone to their performance of "A Midsummer Night's Dream" next Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, Nov. 6-8 at the Perry Park Center. 🎭💚🤍
All performances begin at 7 p.m. and tickets will be sold at the door for $7, general seating.
According to the Silver Dagger Players, this is not the dramatic Shakespeare people may be accustomed to. It is his funniest comedy with lots of misunderstandings, love potions, and spells being cast in both a fairy world and a human world.
This show will be most appropriate for anyone fifth grade and up, but there is enough action happening, that it should hold the attention of younger audience members too. Language warning — there is a reference to the other word for donkey several times during the play.
