When walking into Harvard Public School, the first face many students and visitors see is Lisa Jodway’s.
Jodway has been at HPS for the past 16 years, currently serving as the administrative assistant.
“Lisa is kind, approachable, and always seems in a positive mood,” it states in a nomination letter. “She is incredibly helpful and it’s clear how much she supports her school and the students.”
Prior to joining the HPS staff, Jodway worked at the Harvard Public Library for many years, and “always enjoyed being helpful to anyone who came in.”
When a position opened at the school, she felt it was a good fit for her.
When it comes to her job, Jodway said the best part about it “is helping people. I interact with students, staff, and parents, all day, every day and no two days are ever the same.”
Jodway gave her appreciation for the nomination, noting “Thanks a bunch for selecting me; it’s awesome!”
