Third grade

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

Mrs. Yvonnet always went above and beyond to make sure every student in her class was included each and every day. My daughter loves to dance, and Mrs Yvonnet made sure to spend some extra time at one of her daughters dance competitions just so she could also cheer her student on. My daughter to this day says Mrs Yvonnet has been the best teacher she could have ever had and looks forward to accomplishing goals in the future just so she can tell Mrs Yvonnet she did. I loved the open communication with her, as the kids get older some teachers discuss less with parents but she was always an open book. There isn’t enough words to describe how much she means to our family

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She has the best heart and will do anything for her students
