Tell us why you became a teacher

I had good role models. God gave me the talents and drive to take on this task and have been doing so for over 40 years now.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I can’t pick just one. Working with a student who had a lot of anxiety that interfered with her ability to get work done. At the end of the school year I could see a difference. That means a lot!

What would you do with the $25,000?

Pay towards our mortgage, and take a cruise with my husband and kids.
