Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher because of the students. I want them to find their voice in my room and know that they are seen and heard and cared for. I am grateful for the job I get to do

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable experience was very personal to me. I went through a very tough time a few years ago and my students knew about it. They decided to create a Mrs. Walker wall with positive notes and favorite moments. It proves how wonderful these kids are.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would save it for something extremely special.
