Huge shout out to the real MVP, Ms. Erica Nelson, who is leading the way and keeping us from tying ourselves in knots! 😂 Her patience, skill, and encouragement have us stitching our way to success.
It’s been a great way to unwind, learn something new, and spend time with coworkers outside the usual school routine. The best part? We’re proving that SHMS isn’t just a workplace—it’s a community where we support each other, grow together, and have fun while we’re at it.
