"Best teacher ever!! She helps the kids learn & grow so much in a class full of 1sr graders, spends individual time with them. Always helps in pushing them even though we all know some of the kids (especially mine) can be difficult at times. Has the most caring heart even though she goes thru her own personal struggles.
