The pregnancy ended up being high risk so I had to start the second week of school and work full time for the next 15 weeks! The teacher that I [...]

She works multiple jobs, and will pick up extra shifts during the week or on the weekends to make sure that her students and her three personal children will always have what they need and more. She never complains about being tired, stressed, or worried. She would [...]

She is also a part of the leadership and hospitality groups in our school and helps with fundraisers [...]

She spends a lot of time outside of the classroom preparing and helping students who may not have a full grasp on a lesson. Thank you for the opportunity to show [...]
Megan deserves to win the Teacher Appreciation Award because of the the road she took to become a teacher. Teaching wasn’t Megan’s first choice in a career.

After dropping out of college, to work full time to help her husband support their newborn, Megan always had the desire to go back and finish her degree in Finance. Years go by and after the birth of her second [...]
