Above & Beyond Winner – Tammy King
May 2015
May 2015
Tammy King has been serving food to Quincy Elementary
students for the past 16 years. Food
service may be Tammy’s main job, but she does so much more at her school and
that is why she is the Above & Beyond winner for the month of May.
Tammy was nominated by Jennifer Jackson, a co-worker. Jennifer wrote that Tammy leads and support
many school activities and is one of Quincy’s greatest assets. Principal Susan Liotta said, “Tammy is one of
those hidden treasurers. You wonder how
things get done, then you find out it was Tammy who got them done.” Tammy plans the school carnival, attends every
PTO and booster meeting, directs the school fundraising activities, bags
popcorn for students every Thursday, helps set up the school garage sale and
spends countless hours in the Quincy community garden.
When told of being the May Above and Beyond winner, Tammy
said, “I am very surprised. I normally
try to hide from things like this.”
Thank you Tammy and all of this year’s Above & Beyond
winners for the difference you make in Topeka Public Schools.
