Teacher Tribute Wall

Five or six years ago, Mr. Bezzant was in an accident that left him paralyzed. He worked so hard to be able to return to teaching the next year, with the help of special equipment, and with the help and support of his wonderful wife. The two of them are completely dedicated to his students, […]

I would like to nominate Maggie Huddleston for Teacher Feature. Mrs. Huddleston teaches science at Sand Ridge Jr. High. My son had her last year and she went above and beyond what a teacher needed to do. Let me explain… My son has a learning disability. It requires that teachers make many accommodations in the […]

My husband is a true original when it comes to teaching! His life motto is “You have to be different from the world, in order to make a difference in the world!” Ryan makes a difference is in his classroom. As a 5th grade teacher, he passes on that motto- stretching their minds, abilities, & […]

Chad King has been teaching at Millcreek for over 22 years. Each year he has a profound and positive effect on over 300 students.

Ms. Frye made a huge impact on my daughter in her class last year. My daughter has a very active and sometimes misunderstood personality. Ms. Frye recognized the potential my daughter had for good immediately. She harnessed the energy and the love for people that my daughter has and used it to benefit the whole […]

I want to nominate Tracy Hansen for Teacher Feature. She is an awesome teacher. I don’t think she gets recognized that much because she works at the Alternative High School. All my life I have heard people tell her “when are you going to get a real job?” or “How can you deal with those […]

Mrs. Karen Brown is a fun, happy, “go-getter” who actively stays “fit” so she can entice her students to try to “out run” her in their races. She is remarkable, patient, and encouraging. She has a class with a wide variety of challenges and seems to be able to adjust the educational needs of the […]

Teacher Feature, I would like to highly recommend Christine Spencer for the KSL Teacher Feature Award. She was my daughter’s 6th grade teacher at Heritage Elementary. My children have always had good teachers, but Christine is one of the most outstanding teachers I’ve ever met. My daughter is extremely shy and has been in a […]
