    • Holly Williams has been working on her own time requesting and receiving photos for the Leader In Me Tile Wall Art Exhibit that will showcase how our students are practicing the 7 habits in their personal lives.  Not only has she received photos, but she is spending time editing each and every photo so they are all uniform and appealing for the tile wall.  Thank you Holly for your continued dedication to perfection and for helping the walls of Lutz Prep come to life.  We all can’t wait to see it!  Slats and Guertin

    • Diana Jenkins has gone above and beyond in aiding the robotics club in their endeavors.  She heard about my failures in getting grants to help fund the club and took it upon herself to apply for a Publix grant to successfully be awarded funds to help us get the materials we needed to eventually compete. Furthermore, I had been attempting to order this specific part that was critical for us being able to compete in the future but because of back orders and time constraints of what I was told were due to China trade complications we wouldn’t have gotten the part for another 8 weeks. Yet she found a way to not only get the part but get it to us much quicker than any shipping confirmation had stated for us.  Coming back from the break it was delivered and waiting.  I thank you on behalf of myself and the students for what you have made possible in our robotics club.  Greg Robbibaro
    • Judy O’Sullivan:  Tackling another Pay It Forward Project: Judy been searching for an agency to help me with a “Play it Forward” used sports equipment drive this spring.  The Tampa Bay Sports Commission looks to be the best choice to help us collect, store and distribute the equipment.  Her hope is to begin sending “Save the old equipment” announcements in the newsletter maybe next month.  Spring sports are soon starting and we can catch those outgrown things.  Bonnie Guertin
    • Leah Herring:  We would like to nominate Leah Herring for being the glue that holds our team together! She is always supportive, encouraging and helpful!
