🌟 Staff Spotlight: Getting to Know Mrs. Michelle Sharbono 🌟
We’re excited to spotlight our Elementary Administrative Assistant, Mrs. Michelle Sharbono!
📚 School Journey
Michelle originally started working in schools to be on her kids’ schedules. She spent eight years as a Paraprofessional before stepping into her new role as Elementary Administrative Assistant this year. With a heart for helping others, she found that being part of the school environment was a natural fit. Michelle sees her role as the heart of the school’s daily operations—and she takes pride in being someone others can count on to keep things running smoothly.
🎯 Outside of School
When she’s not in the office, Michelle is busy keeping up with her kids and all their activities. Her daughter is a college women’s wrestler, and her two sons are multi-sport student-athletes—they definitely keep her on her toes! In the spring, she loves coaching track and field, and year-round you’ll find her hunting, fishing, kayaking, or behind a camera capturing her family’s adventures.
In her younger years, Michelle ran a successful photography business, but as life got busier, she shifted her focus to family. She still loves photography, though mostly for fun these days. She also enjoys home projects and making her new house her own. And one thing she’ll never give up? Coffee! Her go-to is an Iced Caramel Silk from Treat Coffee Shop. ☕
💬 Advice for Students
“Don’t be in such a hurry to grow up. Enjoy the season you’re in and don’t underestimate the value of small things like kindness, effort, and integrity. Life isn’t a race, and your worth isn’t defined by how quickly you figure it all out. Take your time, stay true to yourself, and remember that mistakes are a part of learning, not signs of failure.”
We’re so grateful for Michelle’s positivity, organization, and dedication that keep our school running smoothly every single day! 💛

🌟 Staff Spotlight: Getting to Know Miss Rachel David! 🌟
Miss Rachel is one of our amazing 2nd grade teachers! She’s been teaching for about five years (or as she says, 4.5—but she likes to round up! 😄). Her teaching journey has included high school, 3rd grade, and now her second year in 2nd grade!
📚 Favorite Book to Read with Students:
Junie B. Jones or anything by Roald Dahl! Miss Rachel loves bringing stories to life with expressive reading and shared laughter in her classroom.
🎬 If She Weren’t a Teacher:
She’d love to explore a career in film or social media—creativity clearly runs through everything she does!
💡 Her Advice to Students:
Be your best self. Don't stress about what anyone else is doing because you can only control you. Others will see that you are confident in yourself and will like that quality about you.
We’re so lucky to have Miss Rachel inspiring confidence, laughter, and a love of learning in our students every day! 💛📖✨

As some of you may have seen, the City of St. Ignatius issued a safety announcement regarding an incident that occurred on our campus yesterday. I want to assure everyone that there was no threat to students or staff. The incident took place after school hours and is being handled by City Law Enforcement in coordination with the Lake County Sheriff’s Office. We also want to thank Tribal Law Enforcement for their continued support.
The safety of our students and staff remains our highest priority. As a precaution, there is an increased law enforcement presence on campus today. However, there is no current threat or reason for concern within our schools.
Law enforcement agencies are actively managing the situation and are doing everything possible to ensure our campus remains safe. We will continue to keep our community informed as updates become available and as information can be shared.
