Shannon Sipes

I have been teaching since 1993 and it has not always been easy, but it has always been rewarding. I couldn’t imagine doing anything else.

Tell us why you became a teacher

My mother was a teacher and she was always encouraging others to be life long learners. What better way to learn that teach?

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

There are so many experiences that have reminded me of my WHY!!! I love seeing former students who are successful and loving life.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If I won 25,000 I would donate half of it to underpaid teachers or students in need. The other half, I would take my family on a much needed vacation
