Quotes:

“She is one of the go-to persons for ideas as well as assistance. She is a great person to go to if help is needed. I feel that with her wealth of living experience, she is able to offer advice on how to handle students, which I believe is the most difficult part of teaching. She is also a great listener, which is sometimes hard to find.”

~ Jihae Paek, Teacher

“I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for being chosen as a recipient of the prestigious 2024 Anchor Scholarship Award. As a 25-year military spouse, a 7-year science teacher, and a current Master’s student in Curriculum and Education, this scholarship represents more than just financial support, it signifies a profound belief in the power of educators like myself.”
