Salmenio is one of our school’s security monitors and has been at Miles since February. He says the staff welcomed him right away, and he really feels the support and kindness from the team.
Before coming to Miles, he worked at Palo Verde High School, but he was looking for something closer to home and with more balance. This role turned out to be the perfect fit!
Salmenio takes his job seriously. He sees it as a way to be a leader, keep things safe, and let students know he's there for them. His favorite part? The kids! He says they look up to him, and he learns from them, too.
When he’s not at school, he enjoys spending time with his grandkids and staying busy around the house.
