MS Teacher of the Month is... Gabriella Johnson.
Mrs. Johnson goes above and beyond to help her students. Recently she was just trying to figure out how to get one of them signed up to play sports. She is always willing to have over full classes and take on new projects. Mrs. Johnson almost always has a smile on her face and a positive attitude. She makes everyone feel important and appreciated. Her students say "she is a great teacher for art and works really hard for advisory".

This student comes to class prepared, works hard during class, participates in class activities and helps others when needed. Also stays focused and isn't distracted by others. She is kind and is a great friend to peers.
