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

Ms. D’Angelo is an amazing teacher! She has really helped my son grow into a better reader, and he always is excited to go to school and tell her about the books that he read at home. She really cares about all of the students, remembering details from their lives and asking follow-up questions that really shows she cares. She keeps control of the class with firm understanding. She is even a published author, so she uses her experiences as an author to help build connections with students about the importance of writing and editing. Ms. D’Angelo makes learning fun!

Ms. D’Angelo never gives up on anything or anyone!
