I am thrilled to nominate my daughter’s third grade teacher, Chandra Packham! My little Sandra was a timid, somewhat unconfident child before entering Ms. Packham’s third grade class. She seemed uninterested in school and often came home bored and cranky. But you should see her now! Not only has she become incredibly confident and strong, […]

Mr. Hendry is my Fifth Grade Teacher at Sharon Elementary and he has had a huge impact on me this year! I was being bullied by kids last year for being overweight, having glasses, and being nice to everyone no matter who they are or what they looked like. Despite efforts on my mom’s part […]

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, […]
