Keion Smith
This week we would like to shine the Warrior Spotlight on Keion Smith! Each morning Keion brings positive energy through the halls of PFE while doing the morning announcements. He recently served as one of our student ambassadors, hosting our rising freshmen on their tours of the school. Thank you for your leadership Keion!
Hettie Faulkner
Let's shine the Warrior Spotlight on Mrs. Hettie Faulkner for her commitment and dedication to our school community! Mrs. Faulkner does know how to 'cook up' some great lessons in the classroom but she does much more than that behind the scenes. She serves as the CTE department chair and a mentor for many of our beginning teachers. She is a role model for our students and our staff as well. Her sense of humor is a bonus and we love having her at LMHS!
