For this month’s #TeacherProud Tuesday we are spotlighting these members:

Bolivar

Plato

Our Teacher Proud Tuesday posts feature 5 teachers each month that have gone above and beyond to meet the needs of their students.

Puxico

Mrs. Watkins goes above and beyond for her students, consistently finding creative ways to make English engaging and enjoyable. She dedicates extra time to support her students’ success and fosters a positive, fun learning environment.

Mrs. Garner is being recognized for her efforts to help students take ownership of their learning. She implemented a color-coded highlighting system in math, allowing students to visually reflect on their level of understanding and identify areas for improvement.

Mrs. Hefner says, "I love being able to make a positive impact in young lives. Watching students learn to read and write is fulfilling. I am blessed with fantastic co-workers, students and families. Working in an environment like this makes Puxico an excellent place to be!"

Everton

For this month’s #TeacherProud Tuesday Dr. Pam Hedgpeth asked Will Darter, Superintendent of Everton R-III his "why" for choosing to be an educator.

Join the Celebration

The purpose of the Teacher Proud Tuesday campaign is to lift up and celebrate the profession and those currently serving, to recruit and inspire candidates to consider teaching, and to inform communities, business leaders and policymakers on the importance of public education.
