HIgh School Secretary Honored in April
The Provo Education Support Professionals (PESP) in conjunction with the Provo City School District Administration and Provo City School Board congratulates Kim Davidson for being selected as the April "Employee of the Month". This recognition is for her dedicated service to our district and for exemplary skills in working with and in behalf of the PESP employees, teachers, administration, and the public.
Kim was selected from a talented, energetic group of high school secretaries currently working in our district. She is Timpview’s Main Office Secretary and exemplifies all that is great in a school secretary. Principal Bayles calls Kim “Timpview’s Energizer Bunny”!
Principal Bayles goes on to describe what Kim means to Timpview: “If Timpview is involved, Kim is there. She not only does a marvelous job as our receptionist, but she is continually involved with the students and their activities. Kim takes tickets at the ball games, rides the student bus to the state tournament, supervises all the school dances and band tours, and chaperones the HOSA club. She is our teachers' best friend; if something needs to be done, Kim will try to do it. We are proud of Kim and this recognition.”
As you can see, Kim does it all!! Congratulations, Kim, on this honor - Provo School District is proud of you.
