“Mrs. Cline is completely invested in her student’s future. She is a 5th-grade teacher and she made it clear that her goal is to prepare her students for middle school and for the rest of their lives. When I met with her for fall parent-teacher conference, she knew so much about my daughter. I’ve never experienced that before. She is so invested in her students. She expects them to work hard but she does it with a soft touch. She meets her students where they are and empowers her students to take their education into their own hands. She is wonderful at identifying her student’s needs and giving them the tools to overcome obstacles. No matter where they are, she sets them up for success.”
