Spud Spotlight shines on Margaret Waslaski. Mrs. Meyer-Larsons says the way Maggie reaches out to her classmates with bravery and compassion, even through the screen is so impressive. She made showing up for my first block class during the difficult months of Semester 1 far more rewarding with her kind disposition, her willingness to talk about literature and language, and the warmth she displays. She is new to our school, yet she teaches and embodies those qualities that make us all proud to be a Spud. Congratulations on being a #spudofcharacter!
