Congratulations to our very own Chris Lester, winner of the October Exceptional Excellence Award!
Lester's colleagues had lots of praise:
"Chris Lester sees the best in every person she teaches, coaches, and interacts with. She is a happy, hardworking, committed, passionate student advocate."
"Chris is committed to eliminating barriers that limit our multi-language learners from reaching their fullest potential in life and school. Working on a team with her is rewarding and fun because it creates lifelong opportunities for students. Kids are always the priority and at the center of her work!"
"Kids trust Chris with their story. She creates a beautiful, genuinely loving learning community in her room. Last year she hosted an event for her MLL learners to share their cultural dances, foods, traditions and celebrations with the class. It was a huge success!"
