🎉Teacher Spotlight Winner Announcement 🎉
We got to visit Horizon Middle School to present Mrs. Andrea Weikum with the Teacher Spotlight Award! Mrs. Weikum is an exceptional teacher who goes above and beyond for her students and wants to help them succeed both in the classroom and in life. Her nominations show just how amazing she is and how much of an impact she has made on the students! Here are just a few of the nominations she received:
"For three years, Mrs. Weikum’s classroom has been my daughter’s favorite place to be. That alone says something—but what makes Mrs. Weikum truly exceptional is the way she makes every student feel seen, valued, capable, and important. She has an incredible ability to walk into a classroom and fill it with energy, creativity, fun, and genuine joy for learning. But underneath all of that energy is something even more powerful: an unwavering belief in her students."
"She is such a joy in the classroom. She cares about everyone and focuses on everyone's needs. She makes sure everyone has everything they need to academically grow."
"She is a very thoughtful and kind person, doesn't forget about anyone. Always dropping notes and giving little gifts."
"Mrs. Weikum goes out of her way to make the school a better place and gives her praise of students so freely. She is always smiling and happy and welcoming."
