6 RTM Teachers Nominated for Teacher of the Year

A teacher from each of the six district schools has been nominated for the state honor.

 

Six teachers from the Rose Tree Media School District have been nominated for Pennsylvania's Teacher of the Year.

Each was honored at the March 21 legislative meeting.

"It's amazing what good teachers can do for a district, and how kids respond to these great teachers that we have, and obviously the state is now recognizing this fact." Board of School Directors President John Hanna said. "I wish you all the best of luck in the ongoing competition."

The finalists and then winner will be announced later this year. The state’s Teacher of the Year, will be Pennsylvania’s nominee for National Teacher of the Year.

Two district teachers were finalist for the 2013 Teacher for Year. Only 12 teachers across the state are named finalists and Rose Tree Elementary's Nancy Gheysens and Penncrest's DeAnn Scherer were two of those 2013 finalists.

David Woods is truly an exceptional teacher who fosters critical, outside the box thinking! He ignites the imagination and curiosity of his students, particularly in the sciences. My daughter,Katie, is fortunate to be in his class. She is progressing well because she applies herself and David really believes in her ability to reach her full potential, as he does with every student entrusted to him. Thanks for what you do and good luck, David!

Take care!
