Congratulations to Tim Bowers, Project Manager for the Department of Support Services, this month’s SHINE Award recipient. Mr. Bowers has played a key role in keeping the Banneker Elementary community informed and excited about the school’s ongoing renovation and addition project, which will add 61,000 square feet to the school, including five new classrooms and additional resource spaces. Nominated by Banneker Principal Robert Carter, Mr. Bowers was recognized for his responsiveness and clear communication. His efforts have helped build excitement among staff, students and families as they look forward to the renovated Banneker Elementary.
As a SHINE award recipient, Mr. Bowers received a gift coordinated by the Loudoun Education Foundation and sponsored by Loudoun Credit Union. SHINE, or Spotlighting Heroes in Education, is a joint LEF and LCPS initiative celebrating staff who go above and beyond for students and the community. Learn more at www.lcps.org/SHINE.
