How do you know the teacher?

She’s my daughter's 1st grade teacher

What does this person teach?

1st grade

Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She goes above and beyond to connect with the students and their parents. She uses an app to share photos, videos and to reward students with points for great behavior. I really feel like it’s helping to nurture my daughter’s love of school at a young age. She gave the kids “jitter juice” to help them overcome first day jitters ❤️

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

Her attention to detail and love and effort that go into the overall experience for the students and parents.
