      Arrington Elementary Cafe Manager Pam Varga is the Elementary School Classified Employee of the Year; Mill Creek Middle Special Education Teacher Assistant Lisa Bogle is the Middle School Classified Employee of the Year; and Ravenwood High Parent Services Secretary Cynthia Rheins is the High School Classified Employee of the Year.

      "It's an honor to celebrate these amazing employees," Golden said. "Our classified staff is made up of all of those support positions, the ones that work behind the scenes. They are just an incredible group of people that make the district work."

      Every year, each school selects a classified employee to honor. Those Employees of the Year are all listed below. An employee at the elementary, middle and high school level is then selected to be a District Employee of the Year.
