Mrs. Sims was nominated based on the time she devotes to students after school to help them better understand their English assignments. She works with kids of all levels (some with learning difficulties). She does a great job of catering to all learning levels in her classroom. 

She understands different kids learn differently and implements a variety of learning methods in her classroom that adjust to ALL learners, such as creating different spelling level groups and using stand up desks for kids who don’t sit well for long. She makes every child in her classroom feel successful!! 

She has been a champion for my son. She not only is his check in and check out person at school but has shared many ideas with administration and my child’s teachers to help make it through his day. She even has offered her own time to spend some time after school allowing my son to do tech work for enjoyment. She is making our school a great place! Making positive changes and adapting to the changing culture of education.

She works so hard getting all the kids involved and excited about STEM. I had a child hospitalized and she checked in everyday and sent gifts to the hospital. She is an absolutely amazing person. The students just adore her and her joy for teaching. There isn’t a better teacher or someone that works harder. 

She had taken the time to build a rapport with our son as a student and person. She continues to find different ways to accommodate him, give him positive reinforcement and brainstorm with the team how to make things less of a struggle for him. Positive behavior plan that helps him feel included and successful.
