Many Thanks to a Student Teacher




We had an accident earlier this school year which involved one of our English teachers. She and her friend were struck by a car while in a crosswalk. The kids at school were in need of a teacher for a very long time to come. We hunted for a sub, thought we had one only to be looking again. After several attempts I finally told the principal that it might be easier to get a sub in the library than in the English classroom and that I would do it. Well after wondering what was I thinking and being in the classroom for two days another teacher suggested a former student who was doing her student teaching. We investigated and the other school gave up their student teacher and BYUI allowed her to be transferred to us. I spent the next couple of weeks making sure all was great and she took off. I was able to go back to my library.

It was hoped that our injured teacher would be back with us by late January. But she was going to take a lot more time than that to come back to us healthy and strong. So our first student teacher, Heidi, could only stay until the end of January because she was due to have her first child...a little girl. So we applied for another student teacher to start the beginning of January. Heidi got Kari going in the classroom and we have been blessed with two of the best young women in the world.

Thank you Heidi...
