STUDENT RECOGNITION STORY
Why Mrs. Neely is an amazing teacher
My name is Rogelio Santana, and I think Mrs. Neely is an amazing teacher because she really cares about her students. She makes our classroom feel safe and welcoming, and she is always kind and patient with everyone.
She makes learning fun and interesting, which makes me excited to go to class. I enjoy being in her class because she explains things in a way that helps me understand, and she always encourages us to try our best.
Mrs. Neely shows that she cares by listening to us, helping us when we need it, and making sure everyone feels included. She is always positive and makes me feel comfortable asking questions.
She helps me become a better and more confident student by encouraging me and believing in me. When I do something good, she celebrates it, and when I struggle, she helps me improve.
Inside the classroom, she teaches us and helps us succeed. Outside the classroom, she still shows that she cares about us and wants us to do well. She is always supportive.
During the staar test i was very nervous and she was encouraging me and helping me ease my fear by pointing out my strengths in the subject and how easy it is to develop courage.
Mrs. Neely is a great teacher, and I am very thankful to have her.
