I have been a functional skills para in the Box Elder School District for 5 years. Before going back to work, I spent several years volunteering at the schools my children attended and doing PTA things. I first met Randi Jo Marble while I was serving as PTA president at ACHIS. While preparing for a […]

I could go on for days and days about Mrs. Allen, she is Amazing!!! She not only teaches, she loves and pushes her kids/students in a positive, calm, and engaging fun environment. I have been blessed that two of my kids were lucky enough to be in her classroom, and I also worked close with […]

Kevin Hemphill was assigned to be the teacher of my grandson Jayden Sorenson last year. Jayden, who was seven at the time, has always been a little shy and has a dairy allergy. Jayden is a smart kid but sometimes school is stressful for him, especially when other students bring in treats for birthdays or […]

It is my honor to nominate Brad Davis, a fellow teacher from Fort Herriman Middle School. He is just starting his fourth year of teaching, but his teaching goes beyond how long he has been teaching. I am continually impressed with his understanding of his subject, his enthusiasm and sincere interest in his students, and […]

Mrs. Paxton has been lifting students at Millard High School for over 25 years. She began by literally lifting her special needs students, training them for Special Olympics, teaching them to shave their legs, and helping them learn life skills as she found local businesses to let them intern at. She was often heard saying, […]

Miss Cullimore has been influencing the lives of children for many years. She understands the necessity of teaching the Utah Standards and ensuring a quality education for all of the students she teaches. Yet, her most influential quality is in the way she treats her students and how they feel each day as she enters […]

Camee Faulk is one of the greatest teachers and people that I know. She is so dedicated to her students. I honestly think that she cares about each one of them on a very personal level. She is the drama teacher at Kearns High School, she teaches all 8 periods so she does not even […]

Ann Moulton spent her entire teaching career at Ben Lomond High School in Ogden, Utah. For over 30 years she drew out the best in our voices and taught us about personal excellence. Our high school years were greatly impacted by her choir classes and the lessons learned about working together for something greater and […]

Every so often a person comes along who chooses a profession for which he or she is most well suited. Mrs. Barney is just such a person. While yet in high school she demonstrated skills and abilities that she would be called upon to use as a teacher, coach, and mentor. She attended college on […]

Mrs. Kristen Whitlock was my A.P. Psychology teacher during my senior year in high school (2002-2003). I realize that was a long time ago, but I am nominating Mrs. Whitlock because she is STILL teaching me 13 years later. As a teacher, Mrs. Whitlock sets herself apart as one of the best. She is calm, […]
