Congratulations to our December teacher of the month.

Lacey Behl is a fifth-grade teacher at Fruitvale Elementary School and was selected to receive the teacher of the month honor. We had the chance to surprise Mis Behl in her classroom and share the experience with her students.

One of the nominations we received was from one of Miss Behl's students who wanted her teacher to win because "she helps us read when we need help. She's getting us ready for middle school."

We were able to present Miss Behl with a wonderful gift package.

  • $50 gift card to Village Inn
  • $50 Visa gift card courtesy of Farmers Insurance - the Josh DeWitt Agency
  • $20 Starbucks gift card and an insulated tumbler from Carville's Automart
  • A one-hour massage from Rimrock Wellness
  • Fresh fruit bouquet from Willy's Wild Carvings
  • Skating party for 30 people at Spin City
  • Pizza party from the Garlic Knot
  • $50 Visa gift card from Brigette Targett with Targett and Associations Insurance Solutions
  • Teacher of the Month plaque from Impact Promotional Products

Get those nominations in for the January Teacher of the Month. Voting will soon be underway.
