Dear Teacher Feature, The teacher that changed my life was Mrs. Stark. The reason why is that she set up a field trip to Salt Lake City to go to the Clark Planetarium and the Salt Lake City Library. The only way you could go is if you didn’t have any Fs, Ns, or Us. […]

Mr. Averill taught my son in 4th grade. He encourages the kids to look in the mirror and tell themselves they are good people. My son started 4th grade with a low self-esteem. By the 3rd week of school his opinion of himself increased. I can never repay him for that, every child should feel […]

Tom Allen, Social Studies teacher at Wasatch Junior High, has the nicest smile. Even the kids think so, as found in their March 2010 Student Newsletter where they claim he has the best facial expressions. His whole demeanor is one of calmness, down-to-earth, and happy go lucky. Yearly, he has the 7th grade students prepare […]
