Mr. Houlihan at St. Mary's Catholic School - He's always championing his students. He's an outstanding role model and teacher!

Liz Pruell - One of the best at Mansfield schools. Liz is positive, encouraging, has expectations, believes in each student, loves her 'job' and it truly shows with how she teaches, speaks to her class, and parents.

Mr. Coleman - Hands down Mr. Coleman at Robinson Elementary. He had such an amazing impact on my 2nd grader. He created a reader from my son. No words are enough to express my appreciation for this amazing teacher! God bless him and all of the teachers out there that instill he passion of reading in kids this generation.

Peggy DeAngelis - She was the 4th grade teacher to my daughter with autism back in 2006 and now Peggy has opened her heart and her classroom to that same daughter now that she is 22 and out of the school system! My daughter is a teacher's helper there and Peggy paved the way for that to happen. Love Her!
