“Every day I have come to her class I have had the joy of being taught by a funny, joyful, inclusive, righteous, and helpful teacher, she never put’s others down and tries to include everyone she can in the lesson. The only problem I have ever had with her class is my own inattentiveness. She deserves to be praised and honored.”
-Grayson Dunkley
“She has a great way of doing things, is very lenient, and wants us to succeed.”
-Merrill M Ranstrom
“She is a great science teacher and she always makes her lessons funny and engaging. She cares about her students in a way that is unforgettable and she is very positive and funny. Her class is very inviting and feels safe and you can tell she really knows what she is talking about.”
-Josie
“She works so hard to make relationships with us. She will be up late grading. She laughs with us and enjoys being in the classroom. I can go to her for any question and she will answer it, no matter how ridiculous it feels.”
-Lily Wilson
“She is an amazing science teacher who is always able to joke around with her students. She makes every lesson fun and gets me excited to learn about science. She is not your average teacher who boringly lectures you, but rather has hands on activities that include everyone. She is also the long jump coach for the track team. She makes track a much more fun place and a great environment where she aim to make everyone feel welcome. Mrs. Gonzoles is the perfect candidate for this teacher award.”
-Taive J Gubler

“She teaches really well, she is funny, teases us a bit, but all because she actually cares about her students and not just going through the curriculum.”
