Thanks, Mrs. Fletcher! You Have the Patience of a Saint

Everyone has a teacher has touched their life in a memorable way. If you're lucky, you had more than one.

Today is National Appreciation Day, and we asked readers on Facebook who their most memorable teachers were. 

"Mrs. Fletcher at Rincon Valley Christian School," said Tamara Worthington Pitman. "She has the patience of a saint all the while teaching the students so much."

Who were your most memorable teachers, and why? Let us know in the comments section at the bottom of this article.

Other Facebook readers offered their favorite teachers:

Fran Phelan-Logue: Thomas and Jenna Betz (Roseland Elementary Teachers...Live in Rohnert Park), because they are young, engaged and vibrant teachers! They enjoy their students and work (given the little resources they have).

Tina Balderrama: John Boarman and Shawne Kearney in Cotati Rohnert Park USD. AMAZING, experienced, caring, proactive and a great team!

Shelly Agerter: Mrs. Ziese at Evergeen! She said from the beginning that she wanted to give the kids a passion for learning and the rest would follow suit. She was SO right. We love her! Pains me to be leaving her soon but happy to have another one in her class in a couple of years.

Janal Pierce Reyes: All CRPUSD that taught my children and especially my friend and inspiration Ellen Giunchigliani who is an amazing human being and her second grade class is so fortunate to have her at John Reed Elementary!
