Shout-out to Mrs. Melinda Dillon, our Staff of the Month at EFMS! She is a phenomenal leader for the 8th Grade team, and she is always ahead of the game when it comes to all things middle school. Her dedication, organization, and support make a huge difference—not just for students, but for the entire team.
"She doesn’t wait to be told—she is a doer, always looking for a better way to improve. With an undeniable passion for the kids and their success, she pushes others to be their best. And if she calls someone out, it’s always from a place of love.
"Thank you, Mrs. Dillon, for making EFMS a better place!"
-- Dr. Mary Ann Chapman, Principal, Elysian Fields Middle School
