We’re excited to share another Leopard, Nicole D. Hughes, is transitioning into a new role as an AE Aide at Malvern High School after serving as an aide at MES! 🎉 Ms. Hughes is a proud Malvern native and MHS graduate (Class of ’89!) with a huge heart for her community. After 24 years at the Department of Human Services and five years in education, she brings well-rounded experience, and a deep love for helping students become their best. When she’s not at school, you might find her baking and decorating cakes! 😄 Her motto? “You will either get busy living or get busy dying. I choose life!” And we’re so glad she’s chosen to keep living it here with us in a new position! 🧡🖤 Join us in saying congrats to Ms. Hughes as she steps into this exciting new role. #ReadyForChange and ready to make a difference! #MalvernLeopards #NewYearNewRole #PassionPrideExcellence #StaffSpotlight

Please be safe if you must drive through any of those flooded areas.
