Karen's teammates at S.G. Reinersten are always impressed with her positive attitude and that she is willing to do whatever it take to help kids be successful. She is kind, empathetic and always very patient.
Karen goes above and beyond all the time and is an excellent asset to SGR and Moorhead Area Public Schools! #SpudPride
Ten years ago today, Zach Gabbard was in his junior year at Perham High School when he went into sudden cardiac arrest on the basketball court. He was given CPR by a fan from the stands for over 30 minutes. The doctors gave him a 3% chance to live, many didn't think he would make it.
Today, Zach is a paraprofessional at S.G. Reinertsen Elementary. He is a remarkable human being who has persevered through so much since that time. Staff lined the halls of the school (socially distanced of course) in matching T-shirts to celebrate his continued triumph over tragedy.
Zach was in shock, but not surprised to see the support from his team members along with his mom and sister greeting him at the end of the hallway. He loves working at SGR and we couldn’t be more proud to have him on our team! #GoSpuds
