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

My child had difficulty adjusting in the new school and she went above and beyond to make new school fun. During teacher parent conference she was organized, spent time in details about child's progress and at the end of the year the learning improvement we saw way beyond what we could ever expect. Every child is lucky to have her as a teacher. N27 district has a gem under their umbrella.
