Mrs. Gaines has worked incredibly hard to make sure both students and parents are engaged in the learning experience. She does such a great job of bridging the gap between teachers and parents to make an involved learning environment where we are connected and communicated with fully. She also spends extra time just talking and making genuine connections with our daughter, and we are so grateful for that! Often times, I hear about how this is the highlight of Mia’s days, just getting a chance to have a conversation and getting to know Mrs. Gaines has made Mia’s year!
