Today's Orange Highlight is Cookey Harshman, who was nominated by Betty Nash. Betty said "On yesterday I came to work under stress...; Mrs. Cookey said, what can I do to help you to take some of your work off your plate and she email members of our diverse team to get feedback on a project that we are working on. Mrs. Cookey created a tracking log to put all my professional intern hours on. Mrs. Cookey sent out to staff an inspirational quote to uplift everyone's spirit as we have been working under staff. I truly appreciate her extra efforts, always going above and beyond to be a great team player." #SaginawISD #HappinessAdvantage #BeOrange #BeHappy
