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

She really goes above and beyond in and out of the classroom. Gives out her personal phone number for parents to contact her whenever. She makes you and the kids feel like she is your friend. She takes the time to come to any kid event outside of school hours. The way she teaches makes kids want to learn more or do better for her.

She is the type of teacher you and your child will forever have a core memory of. For all the best reasons.
