“Mrs. Schmidt is hands down the best teacher because she has helped this little girl who lost her mom and she is the most selfless person I know. She goes out of her way to help people and her children in her class. She is an amazing person who is going out of her way to help this little girl who is going through a hard time and has done so much for her. We are all so grateful for her and anytime or any day to help kids in her class. She is amazing!”
