"Mr. Cleary makes the students his number one priority, and is always there when a student is in need," Student Council President Kelsey Mogan said. "He can often be found at athletic events where he is constantly cheering on and encouraging our athletes."
"It is clear by his interaction with students and staff that he is not there simply because of his role in the building, but because he believes in the program and the tremendous benefits it offers to school
and community," added Student Council Co-Advisor Alison Franz.
