These three new teachers to FP are absolutely Amazing! I am so impressed and blown away by the conversations we have when we are together in mentor/mentee time. They are strong teachers that we are so lucky to have. They are extremely flexible when my small human is running through a panera! Truly blessed to "mentor" you three

I appreciate working as an 8th grade special education team with these two wonderful colleagues. We are constantly picking each other's brains for ideas, helping each other with strategies & IEP questions, and just providing support every day. I wouldn't make it through this year without these two!

Jamie is super sweet! She’s very kind to all of her kids, but also to her coworkers. She recently helped me out when I was working with a student I had never met before.

Sharon brings a smile to my face each time that she ventures into my hallway. This year, I haven't really had much opportunity to go about the building visiting, but Sharon always finds time to come say hello to me, and see how I am doing. Her positive, upbeat personality is really uplifting, and I can tell when she comes by how much she cares about kids, because she will talk to each of them just about "life" not necessarily about school work. Sharon, you always have inspired me and I appreciate you taking the time to show how much you care about me, as a teacher and A PERSON!
