Kellie 010.jpgCONGRATULATIONS KELLIE CAVALLARO!

Kellie Cavallaro has been a classified employee of the Antioch Unified School District for more than 16 years.  Her career has included site positions as well as district office positions.  Kellie began as a classified substitute, then a Student Monitor, a Resource Aide, and School Office Assistant I.  Kellie is currently our exceptional Administrative Assistant for the Educational Services Department.

Kellie was nominated by Mike Green, Principal at Grant Elementary, and supported by all elementary principals. A few excerpts from the nomination form read, “…When I have a question, I call Kellie and she is there with an answer.  It is hard to fathom where we would be without her tireless efforts.   … I have met no one who works as hard as Kellie.  ….You know you can count on Kellie to have a great attitude about all things and a desire to make things great for our students and the adults that work for them.”

Kellie has been an active volunteer throughout the City and District.  Her community volunteer work includes activities and programs like: Keep Antioch Beautiful, the Martin Luther King celebration, PTA, School Site Council, School Leadership team, Antioch Band Boosters, East County Mall’s Dollars for Scholars, School Cents program, Cub Scout Den Leader, Cub Scout Treasurer and many, many more.

Kellie lives here in Antioch with her husband of 24 years, Joe.  She has two children, both graduates of Antioch High School.  Jason is the Operations Supervisor at Chase Bank here in Antioch. Anthony will be graduating from Sonoma State University on May 28th and has just begun working for Sonoma Technology, Inc. in Petaluma.

Kellie says that her personal goals have always been the same: 

  • Provide the best service you can to your customers
  • When faced with a problem, own it rather then pass it on
  • Whenever possible, go the extra mile
  • Never stop looking for ways to improve
  • and most importantly
  • Always keep the best interest of the students in mind

Kellie will be recognized at the Antioch Board of Education meeting on Wednesday, May 11th.  Kellie and the participating nominees will be honored at the Personnel Commission meeting/reception on May 31st.

Recogntion Forms and Issues

Staff Recogntion Programs

Teacher of the Year

The District recognizes all AUSD teachers by selecting a representative for Teacher of the Year. Any employee may nominate a teacher for the Teacher of the Year Representative. The teacher nominated should have the respect and admiration of students, parents, and co-workers. They should play an active and useful role in their community as well as in their schools, often distinguishing themselves as leaders. Nominees must be permanent and must spend the majority of their time instructing students. This recognition is done in collaboration with the County Office of Education and the Certificated Human Resources Department.  

Classified Employee of the Year

The District and Personnel Commission recognizes and honors classified employees by selecting an AUSD classified employee as a representative of all the outstanding classified employees in the District.  Any employee can nominate a classified employee for this award. This program is annual, and it is supported by the Classified Human Resources Department. 

You are Appreciated! Employees Recognizing Employees

Employees have the opportunity to show appreciation to one another through the “You are Appreciated!” form. This form serves as a quick thank you note that can be presented from one individual to another. Forms are available in Departments and on this website.  

Acknowledgement of Service Anniversary Dates

A stable and productive workforce is crucial to any organization, public or private.  AUSD is extremely proud of the dedication shown by its employees and the number of employees who have dedicated many years of service.   Employees are recognized with a letter of appreciation and certificate beginning with five years of service and every five years thereafter.  This program is supported by the Classified Human Resources Department.
