Congratulations Mr. Hoag! We appreciate all you do for McKnight!! 🎉

Congratulations to staff who were recognized with Renton School District's Superintendent's Award for October 2026. Dr. Pattenaude presents the awards throughout the year to recognize staff who exemplify the district’s core values of Service, Excellence, and Equity.

Service: Curtis Riggins, Safety Officer, Lindbergh High School. Curtis takes time to build positive relationships as a trusted, consistent presence. He also supports youth theater production, helping young people build confidence, creativity, and a sense of belonging. Curtis is instrumental in the annual tours of Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), providing opportunities for students to experience college campuses, explore their future possibilities, and see educational pathways.

Excellence: Megan Farmer, CTE Information Specialist. Megan provides outstanding service to our students, families, and staff, handling all class approval compliance items with the state education office, OSPI - keeping more than 100 of our classes approved and funded. She redesigns and manages the department’s public and staff facing websites to provide updated, factual information about all programs, and manages the yearly update of the CTE Career Guide.

Equity: John Hoag, RLC Teacher, McKnight Middle School. John supports students with Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) in general education. He ensures access for students with disabilities, including partnering with families to foster safety and belonging, collaborating with community partners, and ensures plans are implemented with fidelity. John consistently maintains high standards and rigor for students to close learning gaps and helps them meet their goals.
