Indian Nation Spirit Award (Certified)
Congratulations to Leslie Slaydon, 3rd grade teacher at Jeff Davis, for being chosen as the February Indian Nation Spirit Award winner!
She was nominated by Josephine Barton, who had this to say about her, "Working in her classroom, I have seen the dedication she has to her students and how she goes out of her way to assist, motivate and encourage them to improve on a daily basis. Besides empowering them with the knowledge to be the best students they can be, she also helps them build their self confidence and good character that will enable them to be productive members of society. Mrs. Slaydon is an amazing teacher who is a true asset to not only Jeff Davis Elementary but the Biloxi School District."
Thank you Mrs. Slaydon for your commitment and thank you Half Shell Oyster House Biloxi for sponsoring this award!
