Mr. Bonnell BCSD Employee of the Month |
September 25, 2017 |
By Principal David Miles II
Paul Bonnell is a fantastic teacher and human
being. When people hear his name, they
inevitably bring up positive memories and get a
smile on their face!
I am not surprised then that Mr. Bonnell, our
eighth grade language arts teacher at Boundary
County Middle School, is September’s Employee of
the Month for Boundary County School District
101.
Mr. Bonnell is an entertaining teacher, a
motivational coach and an all-around helpful
person.
Mr. Bonnell is a very energetic and entertaining
teacher. I often hear his voice down the hall
when I am walking because he is so passionate. I
might hear his voice while he is reading
emphatically from a book or reciting a piece of
poetry. I might hear his voice while he is
singing a song for his students. I might hear
his voice because he is trying to make an
important point to his students.
His students hear his voice and know he is
saying something important and memorable.
Mr. Bonnell is also a coach who tries to get the
most out of his student athletes. He is
encouraging and positive while his students are
running either for cross country or track. He
has words of wisdom to help them improve or
enjoy the experience. Our cross country numbers
are high in part because Mr. Bonnell is a coach
students want to be around and with.
Mr. Bonnell is a person you want around when you
need a hand. He is quick to volunteer to help
when a need arises. He has taken over the
school’s Spelling Bee competition when our last
coordinator left. He has volunteered to
literally make his hands bleed scratching
lottery tickets as a fundraiser for our school.
He has volunteered to use new testing methods
and curriculum when we needed it.
People know if they need help and he is around
that they will get it.
Paul is a great person to have around. He brings
excitement to class. He brings joy to running.
He offers help in many areas.
Boundary County Middle School is lucky to have a
person of such caliber. |
