🍎Teacher of the Week Spotlight: Mrs. Nelson🍎

Before we begin celebrating this year’s Teachers of the Week, we want to give a special shoutout to our final Teacher of the Week from last school year!
We missed celebrating her before summer break, but she absolutely deserves her moment ❤️

Mrs. Nelson loves teaching because she gets to watch students grow, overcome challenges, and discover what they’re capable of. Helping students believe in themselves and seeing those “aha!” moments is what makes teaching so rewarding!

Outside of school, Mrs. Nelson enjoys reading 📚 and horseback riding 🐴, and her favorite snack is chocolate! 🍫

Thank you, Mrs. Nelson, for all you do for our students and for being such a valued part of the Washington Elementary family! ❤️

Congratulations, Mrs. Nelson! 🎉🍎
