How have they made an impact?
Julia has loved all her third grade students since she began teaching six years ago. She treats each one as the unique individual they are, which is not always easy with 20+ students each year. Miss K, as her students know her, makes the classroom fun and creative, getting students excited to learn. At the end of the school year, some even shed tears because they do not want to leave Miss K for the summer. A true testament to a teacher who makes an impact and will be remembered as a favorite when they become adults.
What are three words that best describe them?
Kind, creative and caring.
Thank you for all you do, Miss K!
