In addition to her work with Court and Community Schools administration, she serves as clerical substitute at SCOE campuses on an as-needed basis. Her supervisor says, "Ms. Florey see's the 'big picture' as well as the little details in our work, and always helps us solve a problem when we may not anticipate it. She is efficient beyond belief. When asked to turn a need around, without hesitation she says, 'absolutely.' She has an amazing positive attitude and always has a smile on her face. Her addition to our department has enabled us to serve more students in a timelier fashion." Ms. Florey is a valued member of SCOE's Mather Employee Events Team (MEET), assisting in providing activities that bolster employee morale and community involvement. She also serves on SCOE's annual Employee Recognition Day Planning Committee. Concludes her supervisor, "Ms. Florey is a vital asset to the family here at SCOE.

Once the Caltrans crew departs, Mr. Hulan's time is spent preparing for his morning classes and responding to orders for the awards/engraving program. At 9 a.m., he teaches classes his life skill and business classes at the SCBC or the WSDRC. The rest of his day is filled by working with clients, running the snack bar business, and engraving plaques and awards. His students recently provided engraved "years of service awards" for employees and retirees honored at SCOE's Employee Recognition Day. Concludes his supervisor, "Mr. Hulan's work has a tremendous impact on all departments in SCOE. His attention to detail can be seen in every plaque he engraves. He consistently displays a positive attitude, professional approach and willingness to go above and beyond for our clients as well as the staff. He has been, and will continue to be, a vital part of the Adult Re-entry Program's success." Mr. Hulan has been a Sacramento County Office of Education employee since August 1991.
