Spring-Ford School District Teacher Recognized For Wellness Day Work

LIMERICK, PA -- Limerick Elementary School physical education teacher Steve Ferko was recognized recently for his outstanding work.

Ferko was highlighted by the Spring-Ford Education Association for his efforts in creating Limerick's Annual Wellness Day.

Ferko is in his tenth year with the district.

Here's what the Association had to say about him:

"This year’s Wellness Day was held on Friday, February 24th. Wellness Day is a day when our staff and students highlight and celebrate the five pillars of wellness that we work on every day during the school year. Students participate in sessions that focus on social, emotional, intellectual, environmental, and physical wellness. At Limerick Elementary, we work to show our students how each of these areas of wellness are important pieces of the puzzle contributing to overall wellness. The presentations focus on discussing the importance of each pillar, along with providing the tools necessary for students to practice each of these areas every day. Steve really enjoys getting to work with the other staff members for this event, and feels lucky every day that he gets to teach something he loves to such a great group of students."

Well done, Mr. Ferko!
