Congratulations to Donna Morrison! I worked under her in the custodial department for the 5 years I attended SWAU. She was an excellent boss and a wonderful person as well. She definitely deserves this award and I am very happy for her.

Dad, It takes a special person to devote 40 years to any one thing beyond their spouse. Extra Mile doesn't begin to recognize all you've done for all your students during your years of service. From sweat hogs to ski trips, awards parties and out of the box teaching that brings more than books and words to your classroom. Congratulations!
