Tell us why you became a teacher

I was a mom and taught my own kids to read and write. It was such an unforgettable time. I thought wow this would be a great job.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I would have to say, I love when I am able to win over the "tough" (behavior) kids, and they start behaving and workng hard for me. These are unforgettable moments.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would remodlel my house and buy braces for both my granddaughters.
