Congratulations to Glenda Ward, December's META/Liberty Mutual Teacher of the Month

Glenda Ward, High School Special Education teacher, was recognized at a faculty meeting on Feb. 4 as the next META/LM Teacher of the Month.  Speech-language teacher, Kara Nunn, nominated Ms. Ward based on her ability to adapt her curriculum to student goals, her commitment to her students' well-being and her commitment to their overall development.

“She has developed a holistic learning environment rich in language, vocabulary, life skills and physical activity, “ said Nunn. “Her high ethical standards make each student reach for their highest potential.”

Ward also fosters a sense of community with her students as they develop their communication and life skills as helpers to the M-EALS program, their school’s recycling tasks and more, said Nunn.

Congratulations, Glenda! Thank you for all you do every day for your students and the community.
