2001 Teacher of the Year
1999 Teacher of the Year "It seems to me that a successful teacher must have a dynamic personality and an overall enthusiasm for young people and life in general. A teacher may be very smart and know heaps about the subject matter but if she/he doesn't have a powerful teaching style, then all the knowledge will never get passed along."
Diane Steele "As a music teacher I have an opportunity to discover hidden treasures in each class. Every day there is the chance to awaken talents that may never have been explored or developed, to give a child direction into a lifetime filled with music as an educated listener, performer, consumer, or maybe...even a teacher!"
Joe Ramirez "I strongly believe that students will rise to the expectations that have been set for them, and what they do in class should be meaningful, rigorous, and realistic. Both students and parents must play an active role in the educational system in order to have a successful experience in school. It is my aim to give every student who enters my classroom the best experience I can offer." |
