Hicksville Teacher Named Nassau's Teacher Of The Year
The award is thanks to one of her students penning a winning essay about her dedication to teaching.
Fork Lane Elementary School third-grade teacher Christina Marconi was selected as Nassau County’s Teacher of the Year in the Applebee’s Above and “Bee”yond Teacher Essay Contest.
Marconi was recognized following nominating student Landon Luttrell’s winning essay about her exceptional dedication to students and commitment to her craft. As a result of the honor, Marconi was presented with a $500 check from Applebee’s, which will be used to purchase supplies for her class next year, and Lutrell earned an end-of-the-year party at Applebee’s for his class in June.
