For more than a decade Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria has been supporting Sterling Elementary. A multi-generation, family-owned business, \u201cMargaret \u201cMaggie\u201d Lupton and Jeffrey Clonts of Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria offer constant, unquestioning generosity to our school,\u201d said Principal Denise Kelly.<br \/>\nMany years ago, Sterling Elementary School established a Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (PBIS) system which continued to cultivate and focus on the students who demonstrate school wide expectations of being respectful, responsible, and safe. Sterling Elementary celebrates students\u2019 prosocial school behaviors with pompoms. Last year, Sterling Elementary started giving students a <em>golden pompom<\/em> for going above and beyond the school\u2019s expectations, or showing an extraordinary random act of kindness. Students who earn the golden pompom have the opportunity to win a pizza party, and Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria has been donating pizzas for golden pompom parties all year. Principal Kelly said, \u201cThere is never a question of why, rather questions of how many, and when do you need them? Magpye\u2019s has donated pizzas to our Students of the Month prior to the golden pompom celebrations. Additionally, at the end of every school year, Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria donates a free personal pizza to every student at Sterling Elementary to enjoy a meal with their family.\u201d<br \/>\nNot only does Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria provide for all 230 Sterling Elementary students, every so often, during lunch, a student will have a Magpye\u2019s personal pizza box. When asked about it, students excitedly say, \u201cIt\u2019s from Magpye\u2019s!\u201d James Graybeal says, \u201cIt makes me feel good when Mr. Jeffrey brings me a pizza. He\u2019s my friend!\u201d Mariah Carrasco received a pizza for her birthday and she said, \u201cI like that they remembered me!\u201d In talking with Ms. Lupton and Mr. Clonts about it, they will often say that they needed to do it for the kids. Even when no one asks, they just give!<br \/>\nMagpye\u2019s Pizzeria has been in the Sterling community for many years. Sterling Elementary School is grateful for the support that Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria shows to the school, and the love and dedication they show to the children of the Sterling community.<br \/>\nThe Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Board of Education is proud to recognize Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria for dedication to the students of the school district, past, present, and future.<br \/>\nMagpye&#8217;s Pizzeria was nominated by Principal Denise Kelly, on behalf of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Sterling-Elementary-School-1539759652922903\/?fref=nf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sterling Elementary School<\/a><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #3d3d3d\">Link<\/span><\/strong><br style=\"color: #3d3d3d\" \/><a style=\"color: #086796\" href=\"http:\/\/www.kpbsd.k12.ak.us\/departments.aspx?id=8512\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Golden Apple recipients<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kenai Peninsula Borough School District Golden Apple Award | April 4, 2016 Magpye\u2019s Pizzeria,\u00a0Business In the Sterling community, there are many businesses that are strong supporters of Sterling Elementary School. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/2016\/04\/04\/sterling-business-magpyes-pizzeria-receives-golden-apple\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Sterling business, Magpye&#039;s Pizzeria receives Golden Apple&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":126,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[143,164,444,652,978],"class_list":["post-2600","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-awards","tag-appreciation","tag-award","tag-golden-apple","tag-magpyes-pizzeria","tag-sterling-elementary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2600","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/126"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2600"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2600\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2600"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2600"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kpbsd.org\/schools\/comm-test\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2600"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
