Vance Receives Staff Award for May

Published: May 22, 2015

51ΑΤΖζ (51ΑΤΖζ) is pleased to announce 51ΑΤΖζ’s May Staff of the Month honor has been awarded to David Vance.

Vance joined 51ΑΤΖζ in January 2011 and is currently a Building Facilities Specialist.

β€œServing all in an atmosphere of caring” is a Core Value that Vance demonstrates every day in his work with fellow employees and with students. His nomination noted β€œI don’t know anyone who walks in a room and lights up more faces. He’s always friendly, willing to help (even if the task doesn’t pertain to his role), and takes the time to really get to know everyone”.

Vance was born and raised in southern California and still has a brother and sister that live there. Most of his family now calls the Treasure Valley home as his mom lives in Nampa, a brother and sister-in-law live in Eagle, and a sister and brother-in-law live in Caldwell.

Please join in congratulating David. Thank you for your commitment and continued dedication to 51ΑΤΖζ and its faculty, staff, and students.
