Teacher Tribute Wall

Mrs. Helmandollar teaches fourth grade at Hidden Hollow Elementary School in Eagle Mountain, Utah. She is one amazing lady!! The day that my son was selected to be in her class will be a day that we look back at for the rest of his life. The first time we met Mrs. Helmandollar was Back […]

I am writing this letter to nominate Mrs. Nichole Warren-Doman. Mrs. Warren-Doman is a gifted Special Education teacher. To the students in her classroom she is simply known as ‘Nichole.’ She surpasses what is expected from her as an educator, always going above and beyond what is asked and required. Teaching and running a severe […]

“The Teacher Who Inspired Me Most” Just like any other teenager, I have faced the challenges life has thrown at me. Although I have never had to face the pain and anguish of loss, nor the panic and fear of drug use; I have had to overcome an obstacle that has put me at a […]

At the end of 2004, I was a junior in high school and my best friends Josef Curtis and Kelli Johnson dragged me into the choir room because you were holding mid-year auditions for A Cappella Choir and they were determined to get me in there with them. I have the worst stage fright in […]

My son Connor started first grade in July 2011. His teacher was Kaisa Mortensen. I knew I liked his teacher but did not know much about her. I still remember sitting in her classroom at back to school night feeling like she would somehow make a difference in my sons life. They made an instant […]

My story is simple. I’ve never seen a teacher that is so dedicated and willing to use their personal time for the benefit of students. More than once Harris has personally delivered an object my son has left at school to our house, knowing he’d struggle without it. He’s kept us in the loop of […]

I am nominating Suzanne Shaw from Majestic Elementary school to be considered for your Teacher Feature. (I asked other parents with a child in her class to contribute to this nomination as well.) The hallmark of Mrs. Shaw’s teaching is that she sets high standards and then gives her students all the tools and encouragement […]

I would like to nominate a teacher who has made a big difference in the lives of so many of his students. He was a dedicated teacher for 32 years. His goal was to see that each of his students would be ready and well prepared to go forward to the next year of their […]

Imagine a quiet little boy at age 3, unsure of himself and unable to express himself with speech. While in an Early Childhood Intervention program, it was recommended that little Remington start attending preschool at Holbrook Elementary. Imagine his nervous parents, sending him into school, without him being able to communicate with words! We never […]

I have listened to stories on KSL radio for years and felt that I needed to share the experience my twin daughters are having with a math teacher at Viewmont High School in Davis County. Last year, my daughters were taking an Algebra 2 class as sophomores. Their teacher was Ms. Lisa Cook. During the […]

Mrs. Hartvigsen is a great teacher that believes in her students. When I was a sophomore I had English 10 with Mrs. Hartvigsen, I wasn’t what you call the most avid student when it came to English. I was always the kind of student that had tons of energy but never used it. Mrs. Hartvigsen […]

I would like to nominate Ms. Melanie Moore, student counselor at Matheson Junior High for the Teacher Feature Award with KSL and Zion’s Bank. My oldest son Cesar has the privilege to have Ms. Moore as his 7th grade counselor this year and her dedication to taking care of the students and more specifically my […]
