Mrs. Snyder, 5th grade Math Teacher,

awarded Brooke Boyer Teacher

of the Year Award at Spann!!  Congrats!

 

Congratulations, Mrs. Keller, for Winning The Governor’s Award/Miss. Partners in Ed. Top Honor! Here’s what one staff member wrote about how The Wisdom Foundation has impacted her students:

 

“When I first ventured into the newly tilled/fresh-growing garden with students in tow, I was amazed at how quickly their attitudes of enlightenment were sparked. One little girl who has had numerous home placements, school changes, and health problems worked and laughed while chattering about all the possibilities of The Wisdom Garden. I honestly think that with sweat on her brow and dirt between her fingers she was paralleling this new garden experience to her own life. As we walked back into the classroom, she exclaimed to the heavens, “I forget about all my problems when I’m working in that garden!” For this, Mrs. Keller, I am forever grateful to you.”
