You can listen to each new winner at 8:30a on the Morning Kix Start.
Our latest winner is Teresa Rasmussen – Behavioral Teacher @ Edwards Elementary School, she was nominated by Bethany Hays
Teresa went above & beyond for my son, he has gone through so much trauma & she stood by him & myself every step of the way being so understanding & caring, helping me help him work though all the chaos that he went through & to control his emotions & also standing by him & being understanding when his father passed of overdose. She is so caring & gives everything she has to help all of her students & just all children & I feel like this would be the best way to show all of the appreciation & love I have for her & appreciation for everything that she does as the most AMAZING teacher I have ever met.
Take a listen to our surprise interview with Teresa
