By Emma Crawford Kent Daily Journal TUPELO – Armed with an innovative fundraising idea and a love for Saltillo Primary School, Blair Guin helped the school raise $25,000 and earned the title of Lee County Schools 2017 Parent of the Year. Guin, whose son and daughter attend Saltillo Primary and Saltillo Elementary, respectively, said she was honored to receive the award, but that her work at the primary school has been a team effort. Guin was named the district’s 2017 Parent of the Year at the Tuesday evening Lee County school board meeting. When her daughter began school at Saltillo Primary, Guin got involved right away in the Parent Teacher Organization, eventually serving as president. She has since helped in classrooms and fundraisers, including this year’s Boosterthon Fun Run that raised $25,000. “I think it’s been a team effort,” Guin said.
