ANNOUNCING THE 2011 TEACHER OF THE YEAR
This year’s ABTA/MASTER POINT PRESS Teacher of the Year was announced today at the 2011 Summer NABC in Toronto. The honor goes to KATHIE WALSH! Above, last year’s top teacher Tina Radding joined Walsh, a fellow South Carolinian, to give her congratulations.

The announcement capped off a morning of tributes to all eight of this year’s finalists. Anticipation grew palpable as the ABTA’s Marilyn Kalbfleisch read glowing testimonials from the nominees’ students. Many students came in person to support their teachers, and one in particular even had his own dedicated squad of cheerleaders:
Ever-popular (and all smiles), finalist Dave Glandorf came up from Texas and was joined by a trio of enthusiastic supporters who waved pom-poms and stirred up the crowd when Dave’s tribute came around.
Just before announcing the recipient of this year’s award, Marilyn paused to honor all the nominees. “All of them are winners,” she said.
WARMEST CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL 2011 NOMINEES, FINALISTS, AND TO KATHIE WALSH, THE 2011 TEACHER OF THE YEAR!

An fascinating dialogue is value comment. I believe that it is best to write more on this matter, it might not be a taboo topic but generally individuals are not sufficient to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers dadadbaedead
révisez vos clichés, les profs a gauche, c’est plus tellement vrai…Quand au manifs contre les classes surchargées, la diminution des enseignants et personnels, fermeture des classes, n’y voyez vous pas un rapport avec la possibilité de maintenir l&Ã;ouqsautoritr© dans une école ?
