Staff Recognition! Intervention specialist Courteney Beachy - "Mrs. Beachy has been such a wonderful addition to our staff here at Scioto. This has been recognized by not only the administrative team, but her peers have been singing her praises as well. Mrs. Beachy intentionally connects with not only students on a daily basis, but also colleagues and the families she serves. She goes above and beyond as an intervention specialist and works to meet the unique learning needs of each individual student. She is also a team player and recently became a teacher leader for our Student Leadership Team. We are so grateful to have Mrs. Beachy adding value to others around her here at Scioto." #VikingPride
