Congratulations Administrative Assistant Nadine Page on Receiving Top Statewide Recognition

Posted on

She is kind, compassionate, competent, and willing to offer a helping hand to anyone who may need one. This week, Administrative Assistant Nadine Page was honored as the Jordan School District “Secretary of the Year” by the Utah Association of Elementary School Principals (UAESP).

The individual nominating Ms. Page said, “Often when I am asked a difficult question that I don’t immediately have an answer ready to give, I reply that ‘I know a guy’ as if I have some super secret contact. In reality, it’s usually Nadine.”

We can’t think of a more deserving member of the Jordan School District family to be recognized with this award. Nadine is one of so many hard-working, award worthy secretaries in the District and throughout the State. Thank you, secretaries, for all you do to support public education.

Congratulations, Nadine Page!
