YAY MONIQUE GARY! Monique Gary, a preschool teacher at Ward Elementary School, is today's "Yay of the Day" honoree! Superintendent Amy Cashwell honored her recently at Ward.
YAYWORTHY:
Nominator Brooke Johnson said:
"She sets the bar high for her pre-K babies, while nurturing them both socially and academically. She maintains patience and positivity with all she encounters. Monique continues to better herself with schooling and it is clear that education is her passion and calling.
"She teaches her young, impressionable kiddos that making mistakes then allows us to "make corrections." The students in her room clearly understand the expectations and strive hard to achieve classroom goals. When students have to do a reset, they are applauded by their peers as they rejoin the group and work towards making those corrections. It was an honor to observe a lesson in her room due to the structure and level of respect and love she shows her students."
Thank you for all you do, Monique Gary, to make a positive difference and move HCPS forward!
