Rosemary Batista, Health Clerk at Valle Vista School, is one of six 2018 State Classified School Employees of the Year recognized this week by State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson.  The annual program honors six outstanding classified school employees from the following categories: Child Nutrition; Maintenance, Operations, and Facilities; Office and Technical Support; Para-Educator and Instructional Assistance; Support Services and Security; and Transportation.

Ms. Batista was recognized in the category of Staff Support and Security and was chosen from among 180,000 classified employees statewide.  She is the only Inland Empire staff member to earn the 2018 Classified Employee of the Year designation.  This is the fourth time a San Bernardino County classified school employee has been named as one of the state recipients since the program's inception in 2009.

Ms. Batista has spent 22 years in current position.  She is described as “a daily gift” to Valle Vista School community, brightening everyone’s day from the minute she arrives on campus.  “Ms. Batista’s impact goes beyond her daily job duties,” according to a statement from Torlakson’s office. “She has held every office on the PTA Board and organized an outreach program to provide food baskets for needy families. If you walk on the playground during a school day, you can see the children flock to her, giving hugs and showing appreciation.”  She “provides a warm, caring and safe environment for everyone who visits her school’s health office, and communicates with parents often when children have a health-related issue. She tracks all the students’ medical information and takes the utmost care that prescriptions are monitored so the appropriate dosage goes to the appropriate student, and proper records are kept.”

“In light of recent events, school climate and a nurturing environment for students are more important than ever. These outstanding employees play critical roles in creating that environment,” Torlakson said. “They are dedicated and strive for excellence. It’s the same whether they’re serving healthy meals, driving the school bus, keeping a campus safe, or checking transcripts to make sure students are on pace to graduate. I applaud their fantastic work in helping students realize their full potential.”     
 

The 2018 Classified School Employees of the Year will be honored by Torlakson at a luncheon in Sacramento on May 24.
