How do you know the teacher?
My grandson had her as his kindergarten teacher.
What does this person teach?
Kindergarten
Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?
This teacher is great! My grandson had her this year for kindergarten. He went from a school with 70 kids to a school with 1200-plus kids. This was very overwhelming for Noah. Mrs. Hanes helped me through the school testing process. There was no resistance on her part especially since it meant more work.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?
She is great, very patient, and very in tune with all 25 of her students!
