Tell us why you became a teacher

I had awesome and very caring teachers at every school I attended that wanted the best in me.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

The most memorable moment was having my daughters in class and watching them succeed in school and life.

What would you do with the $25,000?

If awarded this amount, I would use it to create a meaningful experience for the children I serve. I would carefully rent or borrow what is needed so the funds could be focused on giving them an opportunity to visit a place they may never otherwise experience. My goal would be to give them joy, exposure, and lasting memories—not just material things.
