Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?
Ms. Jessica has been the most wonderful teacher. She understands each of the students’ needs and finds the best way to meet those needs. She will go above and beyond to make each student feel like they belong to the classroom community. The best thing about her is how she is able to make such a strong connection with each student. If the student just needs a hug or a smile to get their day started positively she is there for it. I couldn’t imagine that there is a better teacher than Ms. Jessica.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?
She is so incredibly thoughtful and really understands and will advocate for each child’s needs.
