💙 Support Staff Spotlight 💙

At EDUPRIZE, we know it takes a village to keep our schools running smoothly—and that village includes the incredible support staff who work tirelessly behind the scenes every day. Our Support Staff Spotlight is a way to recognize and celebrate their dedication, hard work, and the heart they bring to our EDUPRIZE community.

Queen Creek

Support Staff Name: Cindy Atkin

Position: B1 Front Desk & Business Office Assistant

Years at EDUPRIZE: 13 years

Fun Fact: After almost 27 years of marriage, I’ve learned that family time is the best time! Mostly because it involves laughter, shared memories, and the people who already know all my quirks and love me anyway. I also find organizing oddly relaxing. A little organization helps keep the chaos under control, leaves more room for family time, and keeps me from losing my mind (and my keys).

What they love most about EDUPRIZE: The best part about working at EDUPRIZE is the kids and staff. The students make every day fun and meaningful abd the staff feels like a team that truly cares about each other and the success of our students.

Gilbert

Support Staff Name: Angela Tetchner

Position: Lead nurse

Years at EDUPRIZE: 3.5 years

Fun Fact: I started nursing school in 2008 with my heart set on Labor and Delivery. I did my best however to remain open to all areas of nursing although it was a big no to pediatrics. Hospital rotations changed everything, revealing a clear calling to care for children that I’ve followed ever since!

What they love most about EDUPRIZE: The kids and getting the privilege of helping them when they are not feeling well.
