Honorable Hornet Recognition

Oakfield-Alabama is filled with individuals who make our school community a special place to teach and learn. To ensure we aren’t taking their contributions for granted, we have begun a practice of purposefully expressing appreciation through “Honorable Hornet” recognitions at Board of Education meetings. 

The below list encompasses what we feel it means to be an Honorable Hornet:

  • Respectful: Shows consideration and regard for someone or something.
  • Hard-Working: Goes above and beyond to achieve a higher level of success.
  • Kind: Treats others in a generous, considerate, and helpful manner.
  • Compassionate: Relates to the suffering or bad luck of others and demonstrates a desire to help them.

In addition, our OA Core Commitments and Values (viewable here) define what qualities are valued in our school community.

 

If you know someone who lives, learns, works, or serves in the Oakfield-Alabama Central School District, we invite you to nominate them for a “Honorable Hornet” Recognition by filling out this digital form:

Nominate an "Honorable Hornet" HERE

 

Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and selected nominees (as well as their nominators) will be invited to upcoming Board of Education meetings where they will be formally recognized.  We have a lot to be grateful for here in Oakfield-Alabama, and we hope this will be a meaningful way of expressing appreciation each month.

 

If you have any questions, please contact Superintendent Loran Carter by phone or email at 585-948-5211 x4201 or lcarter@oahornets.org
