"Ms. Andino is always kind & helpful to everyone she comes in contact with on a daily basis. She is always positive and never complains. Ms. Andino even makes her walks with students across campus meaningful by having engaging conversations with them. The students enjoy her because she listens to them and makes them feel valued. Ms. Andino often thinks of others and it shows in the quality of her work. Ms. Andino unknowingly reminds me to find the positive in every situation, as well. "
