Melissa Fahey, a learning center aide with the Moraga School District, has been named the Moraga Employee of the Month for February. Fahey has been working successfully with local students from kindergarten through fifth grade with a variety of learning disabilities for the past 14 years, assisting them through their academic challenges and work. "Melissa plays such an important role in the academic lives of those who have learning differences," said Camino Pablo School Principal Tom Rust. "She approaches each situation with a smile and positive attitude and also helps us train new aides and help them develop strategies to ensure academic growth." The Moraga Rotary and Chamber of Commerce presented Fahey with gift cards to Safeway and Ristorante Amaroma in Moraga at the Moraga Rotary lunch on March 1.
