The Sleepy Eye Schools Education Association honored Darla Remus as this year’s recipient of the Friends of Education Award.
Darla was nominated because of her strong support of the school including the sports booster programs. She has also been a school board member including chairman for several years.
Teacher, coach and athletic director Cory Haala along with teacher and coach Kris Bloedel both spoke highly of all she has contributed to making their jobs easier. (View above video)
