The Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District<\/a><\/span> (PYLUSD) recently announced its Employees of the Year for the 2018-2019 school year.<\/p>\n

These nine employees were nominated by one or more of their colleagues or supervisors, who detailed the outstanding contributions they provide to the District that go above and beyond assigned duties. The nominating individual also described how the candidate demonstrates the District’s four core values of excellence, collaboration, integrity and innovation.<\/p>\n

“On behalf of the Board of Education, congratulations to our Employees of the Year on this well-deserved recognition” said Superintendent Dr. Greg Plutko. “These nine, dynamic individuals truly exemplify the vision and values of our District. Their dedication to our organization and a student-centered approach shines through each and every day. Well done!\u201d<\/p>\n

PYLUSD has a long-standing tradition of surprising its Employees of the Year at their school sites or departments. On Friday, February 8, the District’s executive leadership team went out on “Prize Patrol” to honor this year’s winners:<\/p>\n

The Employee of the Year Selection Committee made their choices after reviewing all of the compelling nominations. PYLUSD has the absolute best and most caring employees, so the task of making this final selection was very difficult.<\/p>\n

The winners will also be recognized at a PYLUSD Board of Education meeting in March.<\/p>\n

The District would like to thank all Employee of the Year nominees for the work they do every day to prepare each and every PYLUSD student for success now and in the future.<\/p>\n
