The Messmer High School office keeps the school organized
and running smoothly. The office secretaries are Ms. Dianne Szajna and Ms. Lakesha
Jackson. They help Messmer function on a day-to-day basis.
Ms. Szajna is the
attendance secretary and the records clerk. Part of her day consists of putting
tardies, absences, and early dismissals into PowerSchool.
She has been in the Messmer community for 8 ½ years. Ms. Szajna said, “I like
that every day is different and the days fly by quickly, and I also like when
students become our friends and pop in all the time to say hi and make our days
brighter.” She enjoys working in the Messmer office because she enjoys helping
people.
Ms. Jackson is the office secretary. Her day consists of helping
students and parents, answering the multi-line phone system, and making sure
the supplies are stocked. She has been in the Messmer community for 3 years.
Ms. Jackson said, ”I love interacting with the students and making them laugh
from time and time.” Things that would make the Messmer secretaries’ days
easier would be for the students to be quiet coming into the office, updating
their personal information, being on time, and having a parent or guardian call in
an absence. Also, don’t forget your homework, keys, or bus fare!
So the next time
you walk in the office make sure you say hi and be respectful. We owe a lot of
thanks to Ms. Szajna and Ms. Jackson!
