Staff Member of the Month - May 2026
Congratulations to our final Cardinal Staff Member of the Month for the 2025/2026 school year, JOLENE ELFSTRUM!
"Jolene represents all of the Cardinal Priorities. She has been so helpful during the "Testing Season". Jolene always goes above and beyond to support students and staff. She helped with make-up training for teachers in both buildings, she acted as School Testing Coordinator at the ES and was on hand at the ES to support teachers and students with any issues that may come up. Jolene also helped with all the make-up testing sessions for students at the ES who were out or not able to finish. Jolene also wanted to learn how to do the Data Entry for Special Education and input MTAS/Alt MCA data. Jolene is a calm presence and staff know that they can go to her for support. Thank you for all you do Jolene!"
