Congratulations to
Life-Changing Teaching Award Nominee
BECCA RUHL
C W WOODBURY MIDDLE SCHOOL

STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY

what makes my teacher awesome, Ms Ruhl shes like one of those teachers who are like chill but still gets on our butts about following school rules like eating, having our hoods on ect. but she doesn't over react like she gives us like three warnings then like if we still don't follow directions after those three warnings she'll either call a csm or if we have head phones in she'll ask for them nicely and keep them until class ends. what are some things she do to make you want to go to class, Ms Ruhl she always has a new thing for us to do and something new.what do she do to make me a better and more confident student, When I first started at this school I was new I've never been to Woodbury except when my middle child brother was here he went to school at the old building and played basketball, so when I first met Ms Ruhl she was nice but I never knew she was going to make such a good impact on my school life when I first came here I got into lots of unintentional trouble I was suspended from school every two weeks it was bad I was always in drama that I got dragged into or someone said I said this or that or did this and that it would always kill my mood and confidence Ms ruhl always noticed mood when I'm not feeling good or if I'm not acting the same positive always have energy loving girl she would ask me what's wrong and when I do tell her what's wrong she always took the time out her day during class to listen to me vent and she always had amazing advice she helped me though thick and thin. How have she supported me inside and out of school, how she supported me inside school she had always had my back and tried to help me get out of certain situations and when she can she still try her best to make sure I don't end up losing myself and fall down the wrong path, how did she support me outside of school well everytime I would get suspended over something dumb I would have mental breakdowns but then the conversations me and her always have come flooding in telling I am going to be ok all I gotta do is keep going keep fighting and never give up even when its hard not to there are going to be lots and lots of very difficult challenges coming towards me as I get older its just hitting me at a early age to prepare me for the real world. I love Ms Ruhl with all my heart she is the best teacher I have ever had she always saw potential in me she always let me know to keep going when life gets hard I really hope she wins cause she deserves it.
