Support employee of the year is honored
Donna Crosby, a secretary in the Pinellas County school system's performing arts department, was named the district's Support Employee of the Year in a ceremony Friday. "Ms. Crosby's naturally engaging personality in combination with her work ethic, knowledge and customer focus make her a model for all employees," performing arts supervisor Jeanne Reynolds said. Crosby was chosen from nine finalists. Two runnersup also were recognized: Sandra Frazier, a cafeteria manager at Paul B. Stephens Exceptional Education Center, and Kerry Afflitto, a clerk at Bayside High.
