Teacher Tribute Wall

Debbie Reiber is the epitome of an outstanding teacher. My name is Charise Reimschiissel and I was a kindergartner in her class 19 years ago. I have such wonderful memories of that year. Not memories of how to remember the sound for B, or how to spell DOG; Mrs. Reiber taught me things more valuable […]

Mrs. Morgan is the most fabulous kindergarten teacher! She has 47 students in her care everyday and she’s just like a mother in her knowledge and treatment of each one. She is creative and masterful in her action/reaction to each of them when a problem arises and is organized so it looks effortless. She has […]

We would like to nominate Emily Tanner, 5th grade teacher at Sunset Elementary School, Davis School District as a KSL Teacher Feature. Mrs. Tanner is a teacher’s teacher. She is more than a laundry list of great platitudes – her actions speak louder than her words. The words that describe her best are educator, mother, […]

Mr. Steve Greene of Orem’s Foothill Elementary, will be retiring in May 2011 after 42 years of teaching. As a fourth grade teacher he begins preparing students for Jr. High by giving them opportunities to work independently and in groups and teaching them the organizational skills they need to be effective students. Mr. Greene is […]

Mrs. McKissick is an amazingly gifted teacher and person. In fact, she is a miracle worker! Our son, Ryan, has struggled to find his place in school since the first day of kindergarten. He has always felt that school was boring and, in many ways, felt that school was a prison. We have tried everything […]

Shellie Neilsen is the best teacher our family has had in the 20 years our 6 children have been attending school. We moved here from Boston, and one of our biggest fears was that we would be compromising the quality of our children’s education. We were used to a level of professionalism that we didn’t […]

Mrs. Wayman is a kind and inspiring teacher in Junior High. She goes above and beyond with her students. She believes in them and expects them to reach their full potential. When my son seemed to be slipping in his efforts in her 8th grade English class, rather than just write him off, she took […]

Charlene Farnworth has always been and will continue to be my favorite teacher. I had Mrs. Farnworth for 2nd grade. My siblings and I were new to Lindon Elementary as that school year and I had yet to make friends in our new neighborhood. I still think it was a blessing that I had Mrs. […]

Wanda is an amazing teacher. She is a hard worker in her class. She is actively seeking new resources and planning activities. She made the switch from a middle school teacher to a kindergarten teacher about 6 years ago. How brave! She always has a smile and freely states how much that she LOVES kindergarten. […]

Dear KSL Teacher Feature Panel, I am writing to nominate Mr. Eugene Clark of Mountain View High School in hopes that he will be recognized for his profound contribution to the education of the students fortunate enough to have sat in his classroom. Mr. (Dr.) Clark brought to his geology and physics classes a passion […]

Kathy was born to be a teacher. Even as she finishes her master’ degree in Reading this semester and develops her skills as a second grade teacher, it is her inner qualities that motivate her students to love learning. The children simply flock to her side as she opens windows to all the new and […]

Many years ago, I had Mr. Hugentobler as a cross-country running coach and Algebra teacher. He inspired those of us on the team by unifying us and encouraging us to push ourselves further than we thought was possible. Through his coaching, we grew to be a strong group in practice as well as during the […]
