DonorsChoose.org & My Teacher Hero

My teacher hero is the one who gives me hope for the future of American education. Mrs. Natalie Baranyay puts so much effort into her job, and cares so much about her Kindergarten class, that it has inspired other teachers to also go above and beyond in their classrooms.

What I would do to be a child in her classroom! Those children must feel like superstars every day. She makes such a big deal out of learning, and when they are successful, they feel like they've won the lottery!

When children have a loving and successful educational base like the students in Mrs. Baranyay's class, they are sure to have a great educational future.

This post is part of the MAT@USC Hope for the holidays event. Did you experience or witness something in 2009 that gave you hope for the future of American education? If so, please see this post for more information on how to share it.
