Kathi Green Outstanding Service Award - 2010 Winner, Ashtyn Fisher

High School Division

Kathi Green, a long-time leader in IASC, Inc., began her career as a Home Economics teacher at South Dearborn High School in Aurora, Indiana. She later became a guidance counselor there. She successfully hosted two IASC State Conventions – one in 1988 in her 3rd year as a student council advisor, and the second one in 1997. She was appointed as High School Division Associate Director in 1992.  Kathi truly believed in student leadership. During her tenure as IASC High School Division Associate Director, our organization increased its role in training and empowering student leaders in our state and nation. Her death in October of 2001 after a long courageous fight against lymphoma left a legacy of commitment to and a vision for IASC’s involvement in student leadership. Kathi’s impact on IASC will not soon be forgotten. Her husband Mel and their children, Kelsey and Chris, join us in our commitment to keeping her dream of community service and student leadership alive.  

The Kathi Green Outstanding Service Award recognizes students who have exhibited outstanding citizenship by their participation in service to their high schools and/or to their communities.

This year the Kathi Green Outstanding Service Award was awarded to Ashtyn Fisher (right) of Mooresville High School.

Amy Fix - 2010

NASC Adviser of the Year Nominee

2010

Warren E Shull

Adviser of the Year

High School Division State Nominee

Amy Fix
Center Grove High School

 

Each year IASC chooses a nominee for the National Association of Student Council’s Warren Shull High School Adviser of the Year Award.  Warren E. Shull founded the NASC in 1931.  It is in his honor and memory that we have chosen our Indiana nominee for this national award, the adviser of at Center Grove HighSchool, Mrs. Amy Fix.

Mrs. Fix has been one of the student council advisers at Center Grove for the past 6 years.  She was the adult co-chair for housing when Center Grove hosted the 2003 High School Division State Convention.  She was the director of Student Leadership Institute for four years and currently is the adult chair for the 2010 NASC National Conference scheduled for June 26-29th this summer.  For the past three years, she has trained her students in the RSVP process and conducted over 12 all-school summits to raise student voice in her school.

Mrs. Fix’s strong belief in student empowerment has elevated her council’s achievement level higher each year.  Her fun-loving, high energy style motivates all those around her.  The qualities emulated by the life of Warren E. Shull are evident in the daily work and life goals of Amy Fix.  Her hard-work, perseverance, and dedication to youth empowerment have made her a gift to her students and her peers.   Nominating her for this award is, indeed, an honor and somewhat of a miracle, since she is too humble to believe that her work is more exemplary than countless other worthy advisers.

Known as Momma Fix by many of her students, she is the wife of Matt, the daughter of Linda and Mike and the mommy of Nathan and Abby Grace.  Obviously she is the role model for many.

In recognition of her service to her local school, her dedication to IASC and her belief that young people can change the world, it is my honor to name Mrs. Amy Fix, the Indiana nominee for the NASC’s Warren E Shull Adviser of the Year.

*Presented at the High School Division Representative Assembly at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, March 9, 2010.
