Today we set up at ADM in Altamont to give back to some of the hardworking farmers and farm hands that help keep our communities moving.

Thanks Small Town Treats for the delicious burgers and cookies! We added some other goodies and spent the afternoon handing them out.

It was warm, but the smiles and visiting with everyone made it well worth it. Special thanks to Gina, our newest team member, and Makenna (daughter) for helping make it happen.

We appreciate all our local farmers do and we’re grateful for the chance to serve them today!

If you know, you know! 👇

Grease Gun — you know the routine
Hitch Pin — until the one you need disappears
Baling Wire — the original “temporary” fix
Zip Ties — the other original “temporary” fix
5-gallon Bucket — somehow it has 12 different jobs
Window Cleaner and Cloth — has more uses than you’d think
Tire Gauge — because tires pick the worst times
Magnetic Parts Tray — because dropping one bolt can ruin your afternoon
First Aid Kit — not every repair is on the equipment

These aren't just items on a list, they're part of harvest season. What are some other must haves?

Wishing everyone a safe and successful season.

🏆 Teacher Spotlight - St. Elmo Jr/Sr High School
Meet Melissa Rufus, the September teacher spotlight recipient. This is Ms. Rufus' first year as a teacher for St. Elmo. She teaches high school (9th-12th) English, and so far, enjoying the opportunity! Continue reading to learn more about Melissa, and let's welcome her to the St. Elmo community!

1. Tell me a little about yourself: I grew up in Hillsboro, IL and I live on a small farm with my boyfriend. I have 2 cats, cattle, peacocks, a betta fish, and chickens. I graduated from Illinois College, where I served as both a student ambassador and cheerleader. One of my favorite activities to do on the weekend is bowling. I am in my first full year of teaching at St. Elmo and I absolutely love it!

2. Favorite Quote: My favorite quote is, “Words are our most inexhaustible source of magic,” by Albus Dumbledore in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. I have this quote hanging up in my classroom because I truly believe that the words you say hold great value and meaning. They can have a huge impact on others and can shape who you are as a person. As an English teacher, I think it is extremely fitting!

3. Best advice ever given? My wonderful mentor teacher, Samantha Carbonell, taught me that every teacher will do things differently. As long as you are preparing your students to be good humans, you are doing well. I carry her advice with me every day by focusing on building positive relationships, communicating with other teachers, and bringing fun into the classroom. I also carry with me the lessons I learned, relationships I built, and memories I made with our third grade class! I truly feel that, as many lessons as you teach your students, you learn just as much from them in return.

4. What do you like to do in your free time? I like to spend time with my friends, hang out with family, play video games with my boyfriend, and do crafts. I also love travelling to new places and trying new experiences.

5. A little-known fact about you? I am certified to teach grades 1-12 and I was a long-term substitute for 4th grade before coming to St. Elmo.

It won't last forever
