Thanks to corporate sponsors like Sam's Furniture, we get the opportunity to recognize teachers in Washington County school districts that are going above and beyond to teach our future leaders. Check out October's winners for the "Above and Beyond Award."
Greenland - Lauren Boatright
"Ms. Boatright teaches English at Greenland high school She is a new teacher out of college, but she has become a building leader already. She inspires other teachers to do their best every day. She is a team player and her students are engaged every day in her classroom. She will be an excellence educator until she retires."
Prairie Grove - Susan Strahan
"Everyone loves, respects and knows that Susan Strahan will do whatever it takes to teach you some math, no matter what your skill level is. And we could also add, she does as much to support literacy as many English teachers. She has helped with book clubs, brings her students to the library, and reads constantly. Susan is a kind, generous and thoughtful teacher who I am very proud to work with."
Farmington - Dave Klotzbuecher
"He is an awesome classroom teacher and takes full responsibility for his students. Dave also helps around the building with various tasks! He comes early every day and goes out to the bus drop off side and greets every student and gives out lots of hugs. The students can't wait to see him and they always have a story they like to share. He goes above and beyond every day and doesn't even have to be asked!"
Lincoln - Valerie Smith
"There is not a day that Valerie does NOT go above and beyond. Just this morning, she came into school with a birthday cake for a student that told us on Friday that her birthday did not get celebrated at home. She never complains or gets moody and is such a rock for our students. she is a role model by all aspects and definitions, so nurturing and simply has the biggest heart of anyone I have ever met."
West Fork - Sarah Jones
"Ms. Jones, the previous NHS sponsor, has gone out of her way to help me as the new NHS sponsor. She has been quick with advice and answers to questions. I feel a lot more able to do my job effectively because of her assistance."
