This is a great time for all of our PEN PALS, Community Partners, and Parent Community to be together!
Enjoy the incredible photography at A View of the World Gallery while listening to beautiful electric violin of Michaela Borth from Spinphony.
Lunch is provided by The Gourmet Kitchen.
In addition to enjoying good food and great company, we will be recognizing our volunteer and administrator of the year.
Congratulations to this year’s recipients:
ADMINISTRATOR OF THE YEAR winner Principal Don Stensrud of Fairview High School.
Principal Stensrud has been a PEN supporter for many years. This year, he supported programs regarding parent/teen communication, drug education, and teen empowerment to FHS. He has been particularly supportive of PEN’s substance abuse prevention initiatives as well as introduced many successful drug and alcohol programs at FHS which parallel PEN’s efforts. He has consistently encouraged parental involvement in FHS by offering both morning and evening coffee talks with parents and continues to welcome PEN to his community. Principal Stensrud embodies the qualities of a positive adult role model that PEN seeks to promote in parents.
PEN PAL SUNFLOWER AWARD winner Richele Mein – parent volunteer at Fairview High
Richele’s work at Fairview support PEN’s initiatives at Fairview and our community. Richele serves on the Boulder County Public Health Opioid Advisory Group and the Healthy Futures Coalition Parent Partnership Group. She has been working on opioid prevention and awareness efforts throughout the year, with particular emphasis on prescription opiates. Richele has been an outstanding parent leader at Fairview and is a blessing to our community. Special thanks our Sunflower Award sponsor – Premier Members Credit Union.
We hope that you will join us in the beautiful conclusion to our school year!
