October’s Hive Society CSD Employee of the Month exemplifies our core value of safe and respectful schools. October’s nominee helps make Center School District a place where students and staff are free to be themselves and further discover who they actually are. This person helps everyone around them feel safe not only physically but also emotionally. This is someone who is respectful of everyone – no matter the circumstance. Hive Society is proud to present this award to Mr. Tyvell Kelly, Custodian at Indian Creek. Congratulations, Mr. Kelly! Mr. Kelly's IC colleagues had the following to say about him: "Mr. Kelley has been pivotal this year at Indian Creek. I see him at school at all hours of the day. He's been there at 6pm when I leave and is smiling at 7am, when I walk in. He is always willing to help teachers and students even though I know he has a lot on the to do list. I feel he has done a lot for our building, including giving staff motivational notes when needed. He also has great relationships with the students and is always helping when needed."
