We are thrilled to celebrate Mrs. Sharon Warren, our incredible 5th-grade teacher, being selected as our Teacher of the Year!

Mrs. Warren creates a classroom where high expectations, strong relationships, and a love of learning thrive every single day. She challenges her students to think critically, work collaboratively, and take ownership of their growth. Her dedication to meeting each child’s needs — academically and emotionally — truly sets her apart.

Beyond the classroom, Mrs. Warren is a supportive teammate and a positive leader in our school community. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure her students feel confident, capable, and prepared for middle school and beyond.

We are so proud of Mrs. Warren and grateful for the passion, heart, and excellence she brings to our school each day. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition! 🍎✨
