THRIVE AWARD WINNERS

Congratulations to Circle THRIVE Award winners Breahna Crawford, Staci Brown, Makenzie Doughtery & Larry Unruh!

Breahna Crawford, Circle High School

Breahna Crawford, CHS THRIVE Winner

We would like to acknowledge Mrs. Crawford for all the hard work she does for the students and community of Circle High. Her work as our College and Career Counselor has been exceptional.  She has guided our College and Career Readiness program to new heights.  Her tireless work in this area has made CHS the envy of the State.  

Additionally, she finds time to serve as a co-sponsor of our STUCO program. She gives her time outside of school to ensure that the culture and activities are fun and provide an opportunity for our students to celebrate being T- Birds! 

She is an asset to our building in so many ways. I am proud to recommend her for this Thrive Award!  She is definitely deserving of this praise.


Staci Brown, Circle High School

Staci Brown, CHS THRIVE Winner

We would like to acknowledge Mrs. Brown for all the hard work she performs both in the classroom and outside of the normal school day.  Mrs. Brown is a great teacher who easily develops positive relationships with her students. Her classes are engaging and her passion for history certainly comes through her teaching.   I can always count on Mrs. Brown when we are in need of something done or implemented.  She is a principal’s dream as an employee!

Additionally, she finds time to serve as a co-sponsor of our STUCO program. She gives her time outside of school to ensure that the culture and activities are fun and provide an opportunity for our students to celebrate being T- Birds! 

She is an asset to our building in so many ways. I am proud to recommend her for this Thrive Award!  She is definitely deserving of this praise. 


Larry Unruh, Circle Towanda Elementary

Larry Unruh, CTE THRIVE Winner

Larry has a positive and happy attitude every day that helps the staff and kids love coming to CTE. He is always great working with our kids and joking around with them to put everyone in a good mood. Larry has a helpful attitude and is always willing to help with things outside of his typical workload, including helping kids with tutoring and relationship building. He is very good at recognizing the students when they are helpful and creating a leadership environment. Larry is a true piece to our family puzzle and we greatly appreciate all he does!


Makenzie Doughtery, Circle Towanda Elementary

Makenzie is such a joy to have in our Kindergarten room. The kids and parents absolutely adore her. She goes above and beyond to make learning fun and is always a team player. I can count on her for anything. Thank you, Makenzie!
