Celebrating the True Middle Schooler in the Middle School

Middle School students and faculty honored their fearless leader, John Stephens, on May 18 with a celebration fit for a king! Parent Faculty Association Room Representatives Anne Meals Weiskittel '94, Robyn Hatfield, Laura Nelson, Valrie Luskey Eberstein '96, Karen Flynn, Kathryn Carter and Lea Payne '85 joined forces with Kathy Welch, Middle School Registrar, to surprise a man who is very difficult to surprise! 

The FWCD Scott Theater was decked out in green and yellow and Green Bay Packers’ decorations. Middle School faculty member Hester Burdman read a special proclamation honoring Stephens’s more than 30 years of service in the education field and his 15 years at FWCD. He was gifted with a Yeti cooler and a Packers hat, slides and towels from the fifth-grade; dinner and a night at the Stockyards as well as a gift certificate for boots from the sixth grade; a Yeti cooler, golf club covers, range finder, and gift certificates for rounds of golf from the seventh grade and a personalized wooden cooler autographed by the eighth-grade students. The entire Middle School community also autographed a Green Bay Packers flag.
